Abstract

Today, education is as a key factor of sustainable development. The fundamental concept of the Department of Environmental Management, a unit of the Faculty of Geography, is the fact that the Earth is the only place known to sustain life. Education for sustainable development at the Department of Environmental Management is based on Faculty traditions and incorporates elements of both physical and human geography. The educational program reflects rapid development of the world – it becomes more complex and technologically advanced. Traditional and innovative aspects of education for sustainable development implemented at the Department of Environmental Management are considered in this article.
