Scientific, peace, health and environmental factors are to be identified.

  3. Identify what biodiversity surrounds you.

101.2 Selecting educational methodologies, action tools and plans of action

  2. Develop action tools for sustainability.
  3. Formulate Educational Curriculum Modules or prepare flyers and handouts for sharing knowledge.
  4. Strategy: Study existing ideas on sustainability, especially in your own country. Then develop your own policy for sustainability which will identify gaps that can be shared.
  5. Develop a strategic action plan, take your time to think before you finish it. Then be open to changes as you implement. Make sure you have a visible outcome so that you know your strategy works.
  6. Create a committee or community group for action – needed for developing and implementing the action plan (which takes time). Inclusion, of all members of the committee in the action.
  7. Acting alone – Sometimes this is essential.
