About Saskatchewan WG

http://saskesd.ca/

All forms of education encourage Saskatchewan residents to understand and manage themselves as parts of larger, living systems.

Sustainability requires people to be life-long teachers and learners, actively changing themselves, their economies, and their societies through educational processes that recognize our dependence on ecosystem services and support a just society to meet the needs of all, locally and globally, seen and unseen, present and future.

Mission

To provide tools and approaches that foster collaboration between people and organizations who are facilitating sustainable development through formal education, community and advocacy groups, industry, government, media and other forms of education.
