Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) is a top priority in Schleswig-Holstein. Whether at special schools, primary schools, regional or community schools, grammar schools or vocational schools - the concept of ESD is actively implemented in many educational institutions in the state. One important initiative that plays a central role in this is ‘Zukunftsschule.SH’. Here, pupils work together with their teachers and extracurricular partners on diverse, topical and contemporary teaching projects that fit harmoniously into the concept of education for sustainable development.

Zukunftsschule.SH is a programme launched by the state government to support schools in integrating the ideals and principles of education for sustainable development into their everyday teaching. The aim is to educate pupils to become mature and responsible citizens who understand the challenges of our time and play an active role in shaping a sustainable future.
