Summary/Abstract: Humanity is currently facing significant environmental, social, and economic challenges. This period of crisis manifests in multiple forms, whether in ecological, social, or economic dimensions. Addressing these interconnected challenges is a complex task that affects all of humanity. However, formal, institutionalized education either does not respond to these issues or does so only partially. There are few educational programs and practices that go beyond merely presenting societal challenges and prioritize their resolution. Today, the central question is no longer whether individuals understand the underlying causes of social challenges or whether they can establish sustainable routines in their daily lives. Rather, what is decisive is whether they possess the necessary skills to respond effectively to sustainability-related challenges and whether they are capable of actively participating in the resolution of complex sustainability problems. In this study, we examine an interpretation of sustainability that extends beyond its natural and environmental dimensions. Additionally, we introduce educational approaches that focus on active, action-oriented learning and participation.
