Abstract
Sustainable education is crucial for preparing the next generation to tackle issues and promote sustainable development. This research delves into the educational practices that stimulate sustainability attitudes and behaviours in children, using the example of the Netherlands. By gathering insights from interviews with students, both effective sustainable practices and gaps in knowledge were uncovered, laying the groundwork for a framework to support sustainability education that could be applied worldwide. Inspired by programs in schools, this framework underscores the importance of introducing sustainability concepts early on, integrating them into the curriculum, providing training for teachers and forming partnerships with sustainable organizations. Through promoting consciousness and nurturing a culture of sustainability among students and educators this framework serves as a guide for countries looking to improve their sustainability education efforts. By addressing obstacles and embracing this framework schools worldwide can nurture individuals who are equipped to address challenges and contribute to a more sustainable future.
