Education for sustainable development (ESD) is a cross-cutting task for all subjects taught at schools (primary, secondary, tertiary). Thus, it also poses questions for language education and its contribution to the project of sustainable living and global citizenship. The conference will be of interest to foreign/second/additional language education researchers and practitioners on all levels of education primary/secondary/tertiary/ as well as to applied linguists, socio-cultural researchers, literary scholars, policy makers, and many more with an interest in education for sustainable development, global citizenship, social justice, decolonial futures, human and children's rights and language education.
