Nuremberg Forum 2024: “Education for Sustainable Development – Spiritual Dimensions”
Being aware that the present global environmental, economic and social crises are so dramatic that in-depth transformations of individual and collective mind-sets merit deeper exploration,
Considering that overcoming the mind-behavior gap is the central current challenge of any effort to Education for Sustainable Development (ESD),
Convinced that in this situation, within the framework of human rights and the SDGs, all cultural sources available that could facilitate the necessary transformations and stimulate corresponding motivations should be appreciated,
we advocate the integration of spiritual dimensions, sources, methods and practices into ESD.
An international, interdisciplinary, and interreligious conference, representing the 13th Nuremberg Forum 2024, that took place from 30 Sept to 2 Oct 2024 in Nuremberg, Germany
Conducted by the Research Unit for Public Religion and Education (RUPRE) in Collaboration with Religions for Peace International (RfP) funded by the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, DFG).
Please note that almost all the keynotes and papers presented at the conference are available as videos on the YouTube channel
Also, a book publication with the keynotes and a selection of the paper presentations is in preparation. One result of the Nuremberg Forum is The Nuremberg Memorandum on Integrating Spiritual Dimensions in ESD.
