Berufliche Bildung für nachhaltige Entwicklung in der Kommunalverwaltung

Overview & Synopsis

Municipal administrations play a key role in the implementation of sustainability goals. How can employees be better prepared for this as part of their training? This book lays the foundations for the integration of vocational education for sustainable development (VETSD) in local authorities and for the training of administrative staff. Using empirical studies, the author develops a VETSD competence model to train administrative staff as ‘change agents’ and to integrate sustainable decisions in cities and municipalities. The book provides a practical basis for sustainability-orientated education in a municipal context.
