Sustainable development: development that will allow all future generations to have a potential average quality of life that is at least as high as that which is being enjoyed by the current generation. Key Points

  • Sustainable development is a development that meets the need of the present generation without compromising the ability of the future generation to meet their own needs.
  • All citizens should be treated equally in terms of the distribution of resources.
  • There should be no struggle for the future generations due to lack of resources, they should enjoy the peace and equal rights provided by their previous generations. 

Additional Information

The concept of sustainable development was emphasized by the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), which defined it as: ‘Development that meets the need
of the present generation without compromising the ability of the future generation to meet their own needs.

Actions leading to sustainable development 

  • Promotion of natural resources, conservation, preserving the regenerative capacity of the ecological system
  • Avoiding the imposition of environmental risks on future generations would lead to sustainable development.

Hence the objective of teaching to critically address the concern of equality, justice, peace, and respect for human dignity and rights shows the concern for sustainable development.
