From luisgutierrez at peoplepc.com Sun Sep 6 23:44:35 2009 From: luisgutierrez at peoplepc.com (Luis Gutierrez) Date: Mon, 07 Sep 2009 00:44:35 -0400 Subject: [EcopedagogyAssociationInternational] Essay on integral human development Message-ID: <4AA48FB3.1060208@peoplepc.com> I want to say "thank you" for all the responses received to the survey on education for sustainable development (ESD). There is a consensus that the exclusion of women from roles of religious authority is an obstacle to the integral human development of both men and women. Consider the evidence: PelicanWeb Journal of Sustainable Development ~ September 2009 http://www.pelicanweb.org/solisustv05n09page1.html In brief, this article includes: * Section 1, a brief progress report on the ESD surveys. * Section 2, clarification of sustainable development terminology. * Section 3, an essay on integral human development. * Section 4, an overview of sustainable development indicators * Section 5, an essay on religious traditions and human development. * Section 6, a review of survey-based evidence. * Section 7, a review of recent scholarly research. * Section 8, a review of some real life examples. * Section 9, suggestions for prayer, study, and action. I look forward to continue this research and would be grateful to receive additional feedback. Sincerely, Luis Luis T.
