Comparative and International Education Society | 63rd Annual Conference

Education for Sustainability
San Francisco, California, April 14-18, 2019

During its “Development Decade” of the 1960s, the United Nations advocated for education as a driver of economic growth. However, over the past fifty years, questions have been asked with increasing urgency about the kinds of development promulgated through literacy, skills training, and formal schooling. What is the longer-term cost of an education that promises productivity, industrialization, modernity, and consumption? Such questions lead to the theme of the next meeting of the Comparative and International Education Society: Education for Sustainability. Come and contribute.
