4. Children and sustainable development
The internationally accepted definition of sustainable development has been taken from the report entitled “Our
Common Future” by the World Commission on Environment and Development set up in 1987 and chaired by the former
Norwegian Prime Minister Gro Brundtland.
This report defined sustainable development as: “development which meets the needs of the present without com-
promising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”.
Sustainable development has a number of sides: an economic side, an ecological side, a socio-cultural side and a
time and space side. The first three stand for the three capitals : people, planet, profit.
For stimulate something like sustainable development is need to maintain a balance between people, planet and profit.
Sustainable development is not possible unless young people participate. We want young people to learn, to means
of the mutual gains method, to seek sustainable solution to problems. Helping young people to develop an outlook on life
to extends beyond themselves, their immediate environment and the time in which they live, is one of the ways to change
society.
Young people are best reached within structured learning environments such as schools and clubs. And the impor-
tance does not consist of learning about sustainable development, but of learning to achieve sustainable development.
Did you hear what they said? They lack information and are tired of boring education. Children don’t want even
more books. They ‘re dying to experience something they can enjoy. The messenger is very important. Children don’t
feel that they are being involved and that’s why they don’t take any responsibility. Anyone who works with children
knows that you can reason with them about their behavior. If you point out little things that are recognizable from their
own lives, they are prepared to participate in finding solution. But we have to keep supplying them with knowledge. Re-
lating technology to the young people’s world and explaining how cradle to cradle works and what life cycle thinking is.
We must go on from there to include them, take them seriously and get them involved in making decisions. Children are
very receptive.

5. Copiii si dezvoltarea durabila
Defini ia acceptată la nivel interna ional de dezvoltare durabilă a fost luată din raportul intitulat "Viitorul
nostru comun", de către Comisia Mondială pentru Mediu şi Dezvoltare înfiin at în 1987 şi prezidat de fostul
prim-ministru norvegian Gro Brundtland.
Acest raport a definit dezvoltarea durabilă ca: "dezvoltarea care satisface nevoile prezentului fără a
compromite capacitatea genera iilor viitoare de a-şi satisface propriile nevoi".
Dezvoltarea durabilă are o serie de laturi: o latură economică, o latură ecologică, o parte socio-
culturala şi o parte de timp şi spa iu. Primele trei stau la baza celor trei capitaluri: oameni, planeta, profitul.
Pentru a stimula ceva de genul dezvoltării durabile este necesara men inerea unui echilibru între
oameni, planetă şi profit.
Dezvoltarea durabilă nu este posibilă fara participarea tinerilor. Vrem ca tinerii să înve e, sa inteleaga
metoda castigului reciproc , sa caute solu ii durabile la probleme. Sprijinirea tinerilor pentru a dezvolta o
viziune despre via ă, de a se extinde dincolo de ei înşişi, de mediul lor imediat şi timpul în care trăiesc, este
una dintre modalită ile de a schimba societatea.
Ajungem mai bine la capacitatea de intelegere a tinerilor în medii de învă are structurată, cum ar fi
şcoli şi cluburi si importan a nu constă in a învă a despre dezvoltarea durabilă, ci de a învă a cum se real-
izeaza o dezvoltare durabilă.
Ai auzit ce au spus? Le lipseste informatia şi sunt obositi de o educatie plictisitoare. Copiii chiar nu
doresc mai multe carti. Ei mor sa experimenteze ceva de care se pot bucura. Mesagerul este foarte impor-
tant. Copiii nu simt că sunt implicati şi de aceea nu-si iau nici o responsabilitate. Oricine lucrează cu copii
ştie că are posibilitatea să discute cu ei despre comportamentul lor. Dacă punctezi lucruri marunte care
sunt uşor de recunoscut pentru propria lor viata, ei sunt pregăti i să participe la găsirea de solu ii. Dar noi
trebuie să ii aprovizionam cu cunoastere, conectand tehnologia la lumea tinerilor, explicand cum lucrurile
se leaga in functionarea lor şi ce este ciclul vietii . Trebuie să continuam de aici sa ii includem, să ii luam în
serios şi să ii implicam în luarea deciziilor. Copiii sunt foarte receptivi.

6. Children and sustainable development
We need to expand the role of young people. Take it from the “family” to society. Education is an appropriate in-
strument to achieve this. But it needs to look and feel more like a family. We have managed this pretty well at primary
schools but in the early years of secondary education it’s back to square one. This changeover has been wrongly setup.
Education should bear more resemblance to real life. Then you would gain in areas such as health, nature and environ-
ment and discrimination.
Children lose interest due to the way in which they are expected to learn. Of course adolescence plays a role too, but you
can’t blame everything on that.
There are teachers who can see into the minds of their pupils. This is a timeless skill by means of which the mes-
sage leaves a lasting impression. The messenger is of crucial importance.
Most of the time children don’t pay any attention to sustainable development. They don’t think about it, but if you
explain to them what it’ s about, then they come up with examples and opinions. Children like stories and images. Their
memories consist of these things. This is how their brains work. Complicated concepts are lost of them. They find it diffi-
cult to discover connections. So, it’s really important to talk simply and clearly and provide illustration, preferably in the
form of stories and experiences.
Whether sustainable development as a theme puts down roots in the heads and hearts of children depends on per-
ception and on such stories. More and more primary schools are discovering the secret. By constantly providing children
with ideas and stories, by taking them on field trips, letting them see, touch, hear, smell and taste things, we cultivate a
feeling for sustainable development.
We get the feeling that they only listen to adults’ opinions. But you could invite children to all the environmental
things, ask them their ideas and then actually do something with them.
Sustainable development is not only a project, but must become part of the school’s curriculum – not in the form of
extra work, but by taking something out of curriculum and replacing it with sustainable development.

7. Copiii si dezvoltarea durabila
Trebuie sa extindem rolul tinerilor de la "familie" spre societate. Educa ia este un instrument adecvat
pentru a realiza acest lucru. Dar ea trebuie sa arate si sa fie simtita ca o familie. Am reuşit acest lucru des-
tul de bine la şcolile primare, dar în primii ani de învă ământ secundar stagneaza. Această schimbare a fost
în mod eronat configurata. Educa ia ar trebui sa semene mai mult cu via a reală. Apoi, ai avea de castigat în
domenii cum ar fi sănătatea, natura şi mediul înconjurător şi discriminarea.
Copiii îşi pierd interesul, datorită modului în care se aşteaptă să înve e. Desigur adolescen a joacă si
ea un rol , dar nu poti da vina numai pe acest lucru.
Există profesori care pot vedea în mintea elevilor lor. Aceasta este o abilitate atemporala prin care me-
sajul lasă o impresie de durată. Mesagerul este de o importan ă crucială.
De cele mai multe ori, copiii nu acorda nici o aten ie dezvoltarii durabile. Ei nu se gândesc la asta, dar
dacă le explica i despre ce e vorba, ei vin cu exemple şi opinii. Copiilor le plac poveştile şi imag-
inile. Amintirile lor constau din aceste lucruri. Acesta este modul în care creierul lor functioneaza. Concepte
complicate sunt pierdute . Ei consideră că este dificil sa descopere conexiunile. Deci, este foarte important
sa vorbesti simplu şi clar, să furnizezi ilustratii, de preferin ă sub formă de poveşti şi experien e.
Ca dezvoltarea durabilă ca temă sa prinda rădăcini în mintea şi inimile copiilor depinde de percep ie şi
de astfel de povesti. Din ce in ce mai multe şcoli descopera secretul. Prin furnizarea in mod constant cu idei
şi povestiri, luându-i în deplasări în teren, permi ându-le sa vada, sa atinga, sa auda, sa miroase si sa guste
lucrurile , le cultivăm un sentiment de dezvoltare durabilă.
Avem sentimentul că ei doar asculta opiniile adul ilor . Dar ati putea invita copiii la tot ce este legat de
mediu, să le cere i parerile si sa le puneti in aplicare.
Dezvoltarea durabilă nu este doar un proiect, ci trebuie să devină parte a curriculum-ului şcolar - nu
sub formă de muncă suplimentară, ci eliminand ceva şi înlocuind cu dezvoltarea durabilă.

20. OLD WOMAN’S DAUGHTER AND OLD MAN’S DAUGHTER
By Ion Creanga
It was once an old man and a old woman and old man had a girl and old woman another girl. Old woman's daughter was
ugly, lazy and bad. But the old man's daughter was beautiful, hardworking and good. Old woman and her daughter hated the
old man’s daughter and asked her to work hard, scolded her all the time and always complained that she doesn’t work enough.
Old man, weary of so much strife in the house, he asked his daughter to leave, although suffered from separation. He gave
good advice and blessed her and the girl left in tears, to seek a master for work and live.
She went one day and here, the way it showed a weak and sick puppy, who said:
- Beautiful and good girl, care of me and I might help you sometime.
The girl washed it and fed it and walked on.
Along the way, she met a beautiful blossom apple tree, but full of caterpillars, which said:
- Beautiful and good girl, clean me of caterpillars and I will ever be useful.
And she cleared the tree from caterpillars and brushwood and she went on.
Soon she met a well abandoned and full of mud that asked her:
- Beautiful and good girl, clean me of mud and I will ever be useful.
The girl cleaned well and she went on full of hope.
Soon she met a destroyed oven, who asked for help:
- Beautiful and good girl, repair and clean me and I will ever be useful.
And again, benevolent, she did what was asked.
After many days and nights away on deserted roads she came to a forest and saw a large beautiful meadow. And there
was a clearing house. From the house came an old woman who spoke to her gently:
- What are you doing here, child, and who are you?

21. FATA BABEI SI FATA MOSNEAGULUI
De Ion Creanga
A fost odata un mosneag si o baba si mosneagul avea o fata si baba o alta fata. Fata babei era sluta, lenesa sir ea. Fata
mosneagului era insa frumoasa, harnica si buna. Baba si fata ei o urau pe fata mosneagului si-i cereau sa munceasca din greu, o
si-
certau tot timpul si se plangeau mereu ca nu face destul.
I-
Mosneagul, satul de atata cearta in casa, ii ceru fetei sale sa plece, desi suferea din cauza despartirii. I-a dat sfaturi bune
binecuvantat- sa-
si a binecuvantat-o si fata a plecat cu lacrimi in ochi, sa-si caute un stapan la care sa munceasca si sa poata trai.
i- i-
A mers o zi si iata, in drum i-a aparut o catelusa slaba si bolnava, care i-a spus:
- Fata frumoasa si buna, ingrijeste-ma si-ti voi fi si eu de folos vreodata.
ingrijeste- si-
spalat- hranit-
Fata a spalat-o si a hranit-o si a mers mai departe.
Pe drum, a intalnit un mar frumos inflorit, dar plin de omizi care i-a spus:
i-
curata- si-
- Fata frumoasa si buna curata-ma de omizi si-ti voi fi de folos vreodata.
Si fata a curatat pomul de uscaturi si omizi si a mers mai departe.
Curand a intalnit o fantana parasita si plina de noroi care s-a rugat de ea:
s-
curata- si-
- Fata frumoasa si buna, curata-ma de noroi si-ti voi fi si eu de folos vreodata.
si-
Fata a curatat fantana si si-a continuat drumul plina de speranta.
i-
Foarte curand a intalnit un cuptor daramat, care i-a cerut ajutorul:
- Fata frumoasa si buna, repara-ma si curata-ma si iti voi fi de folos vreodata.
repara- curata-
s-
Si iarasi, binevoitoare, fata a facut ce i s-a cerut.
Dupa multe zile si nopti de mers pe drumuri pustii a ajuns la o padure mare si a vazut o poiana foarte frumoasa. Si in
poiana era o casuta. Din casuta a iesit o baba care i-a vorbit cu blandete:
i-
- Ce cauti aici ,copila, si cine esti?

22. OLD WOMAN’S DAUGHTER AND OLD MAN’S DAUGHTER
- I am a poor and motherless girl, looking for work and shelter, said the girl.
- You got better, said the old woman . I am Holy Sunday. Serve me today and you will not go without reward.
- What job should I do? asked the girl happy.
-Wash my little children, feed them, make food and do housework.
And Holy Sunday went to church. The girl prepared water for washing and shouted:
- Children, children come to mama!
And, suddenly, the courtyard was filled with dragons and wild animals big and small. But
the girl was not scared, she washed and fed them with love. Then she cooked for old woman and
cleaned the house.
When the old woman came back was very pleased.
- Go up in the attic, said to the girl, and pick a box, but don’t open it until you arrive at
home.
In the attic, she found several boxes. Some were large and beautifully decorated, others
were small, old and ugly. Because she was modest, she chose a small box, old and ugly.
Holy Sunday blessed her and she started back towards home. Along the way, surprise! She
was expected by a warm oven with the pies, a clear water fountain, beautiful apple offered by
the apple tree and the puppy had a necklace of gold around it’s neck that gave to her.
When she got home, her father was very happy. They opened the box together and from it came out countless riches: herds
of horses, herds of cattle and flocks of sheep! Old man was very happy, but his wife and her daughter died of spite.
- Let me mother, to go and get you rich! shouted the angry old woman's daughter.
And she departed on the same road. She also met the sick and weak puppy, the apple full of caterpillars, the well filled
with mud and the destroyed oven. But at their request to help, the old woman's daughter said:
- What? I soiled my hands with you? I am not your servant!
And she walked away without giving them attention.

23. FATA BABEI SI FATA MOSNEAGULUI
- Sunt o fata saraca si fara mama, caut de lucru si adapost, a raspuns fata.
- Ai nimerit bine, i-a spus baba. Eu sunt Sfanta Duminica. Slujeste la mine astazi si nu vei pleca fara rasplata.
i-
- Ce treaba am de facut ? a intrebat fata bucuroasa.
- Sa-mi speli copilasiii, sa-i hranesti, sa faci de mancare si sa faci curatenie in casa.
Sa- sa-
Si baba a plecat la biserica. Fata a pregatit apa de spalat si a strigat:
- Copii, copii veniti la mama!
dintr- s- s-
Si dintr-o data curtea s-a umplut de balauri si de jivine mari si mici. Dar fata nu s-a speriat,
le-a spalat si le-a hranit cu
le- le-
dragoste. Apoi a pregatit mancaruri bune pentru baba si a curatat in casa.
s-
Cand baba s-a intors a fost foarte multumita.
- Urca-te in pod, i-a spus fetei, si alege-ti o lada, dar n-o deschide pana acasa.
Urca- i- alege- n-
In pod, fata a gasit mai multe lazi. Unele erau mari si frumos impodobite, altele erau mici,
vechi si urate. Pentru ca era modesta, fata a ales o lada mica, veche si urata.
binecuvantat-
Baba a binecuvantat-o si fata a pornit inapoi spre casa. Pe drum, surpriza! Cuptorul o
i-
astepta cu placinte calde, fantana avea apa limpede, marul i-a oferit mere frumoase, iar catelusa
i-
avea la gat un colier de aur pe care i-la dat fetei.
Cand a ajuns acasa, tatal ei s-a bucurat mult. Au deschis lada impreuna si din ea au iesit nenumarate bogatii: herghelii de
s-
cai, cirezi de vite si turme de oi! Mosneagul era tare fericit, dar nevasta lui si fata ei mureau de ciuda.
- Lasa, mama, ma duc si eu sa-ti aduc bogatii! a strigat furioasa fata babei.
sa-
Si a pornit pe acelasi drum. A intalnit si ea catelusa bolnava si slaba, marul plin de omizi, fantana plina de noroi si cupto
rul daramat. Dar la rugamintile lor de a le ajuta, fata babei a raspuns:
- Ce? Sa-mi murdaresc eu mainile cu voi? Eu nu sunt sluga voastra!
Sa-
Si a plecat mai departe fara sa le dea atentie.

24. OLD WOMAN’S DAUGHTER AND OLD MAN’S DAUGHTER
She arrived at Holy Sunday and asked her for shelter and employment. But there she did not perform well. She frightened
the animals and scalded them with boiling water, burned food, and the house was dirtier than ever.
But Holy Sunday gently told her to choose also a reward box. And the old woman's daughter, greedy, chose the largest
and most beautiful box. And she went back home.
Along the way, the oven did not want to give her pies, well refused to give her water, apple raised branches she cannot
reach the fruits and the puppy bit her.
At home, old woman's daughter opened the box with his mother. And suddenly,from the box came out a lot of dragonswho
ate the old woman and her daughter.
And the old man and his daughter remained happy and rich. The girl married a good and diligent boy and life in their
house was always happy.

25. FATA BABEI SI FATA MOSNEAGULUI
i- s-
A ajuns la Sfanta Duminica si i-a cerut adapost si loc de munca. Dar nici aici nu s-a comportat bine. A speriat animalele
si le-a oparit cu apa fierbinte, a ars mancarea, iar casa era mai murdara ca oricand.
le-
i- sa-
Sfanta Duminica i-a spus insa cu blandete sa-si aleaga si ea o lada ca rasplata. Si fata babei, lacoma a ales cea mai mare si
mai frumoasa lada. Si a plecat spre casa.
Pe drum, cuptorul n-a vrut sa-i dea placinte, fantana n-a vrut sa-i dea apa, marul si-a ridicat crengile sa nu poata ajunge
n- sa- n- sa- si-
muscat-
la fructe si catelusa a muscat-o.
Acasa, fata babei a deschis lada impreuna cu mama sa. Si dintr-o data, din lada au iesit o multime de balauri care au man-
dintr-
cat si pe baba si pe fata ei.
Iar mosneagul si fata lui au ramas fericiti si bogati. Fata s-a maritat cu un baiat bun si harnic si in casa lor a fost mereu
s-
fericire.
