Abstract
Contemporary man, while declaring war against nature, has de-clared war to himself. We are exerting extreme pressures on our planet, driven by an unsustainable logic of consumption and pro-duction that amplifies inequalities and shows itself in all its gravity in the consequences of human migrations linked to climate change, in the energy crisis, in land consumption. Environmental issues are increasingly the reason and cause of armed conflicts or outright wars.Education, peace,and sustainability represent an unbreakable trinomial, but in several respects a missed opportunity to reverse course. Guiding and accompanying human beings to responsibility towards the planet calls for pedagogy in promoting transformative and systemic processes to understand the profound relationship that connects humanity and the environment to read the complex-ity of time and the places we inhabit in an unprecedented way, cul-tivating values and perspectives to make a democratic and peaceful society blossom.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
