15 April 2022
Today, much attention of the world community is paid to environmental protection and the preservation of the ecological cleanliness of the planet. To remind people of this, April 15 is annually celebrated as World Environmental Knowledge Day.
The Republic of Belarus pays great attention to the development of environmental education and upbringing. The environmental orientation is one of the main principles of the Strategy for the Development of the State Youth Policy of the Republic of Belarus until 2030. The system of environmental education, upbringing and enlightenment is defined by the Law «On Environmental Protection». Relevant policy documents have been developed at the national level. The creation of «Green Schools» in the Republic of Belarus is of particular importance in the formation of environmentally competent behavior. Currently, 148 educational institutions have received Green School certificates, which is about 4% of all schools in the country. Another 500 educational institutions are involved in this process.
The formation of environmental literacy and the provision of environmental education makes an important contribution to the achievement by the Republic of Belarus of Sustainable Development Goals 4, 13, 15 and other SDGs.
