Measurement and Analysis of Education for Sustainable Development in Vulnerable Environments within the Framework of the 2030 Agenda.

Abstract

The 2030 agenda invites all people to contribute to the improvement of the world from the reality of each one, this new international agenda seeks to reinforce the work of small entities that can help the proposed goals to be met. The objective of this study is to analyze the contribution of social entities to goal 4.7 of the Sustainable Development Goals and to find out if the learning of education for sustainable development is greater than in other forms of teaching. The construct is measured in a sample of 220 children who participate in socio-educational intervention associations in the neighborhood of Entrevías. The results show statistically significant differences between the groups (Z = -11.549; p <.001) being the experimental group (M= 128.63; DT = 13.11) who obtained a mean significantly higher than the control group (M= 84.85; DT =18.50 These results seem to point out that the methodologies used by social entities favor a greater learning of education for sustainable development with respect to formal education centers.
