Sustainable development is a very actual and complex matter with a world global dimension, as demostrated in the recent Conference of Copenhaghen with special care to environmental and economical aspect as the reduction of CO2 level, but also the social and cultural aspects are very important as we appreciated in UK in the frame of social inclusion and health care in rural areas, and their confidence with active citizenship and participative democracy. This project is a follow-up of E2D2, a Grundtvig learning project finishing in 2010, which provided a framework to facilitate visits which explored sustainable development through environmental, economic, social and cultural aspects. It was a forum for the exchange of experiences and provided a network for discussion and learning through examples of good practice. Partners compared and contrasted things that work well in their regions/countries and demonstrate strategies for effective inclusion of learners, particularly those in rural areas. Very interesting emergences were born from this partnership, important to put in evidence and valorize through vocational training, ITC and stakeholders involment, the social and cultural aspects of sustainable development as education, behaviours, lifestyle, active citizenship, participative democracy, social inclusion, health care, multiculturalism, and its connections with environmental and economical aspects. To do this international meetings and local activities will be planned to share all the know-how about these themes through seminars, conferences, forum and thematic visits. All the material collected will be translated in all local languages and used for local activities and vocational training for stakeholders representative of public and private institutions, school, universities, cooperatives, association, confederations, municipalities, mass media, educational professionals. Everything will be collected in a multilanguage DVD and available in the official website of the project: an interactive platform, meeting point and point of reference for all beneficiaries and learners as source of information, knowledege and best practices, interactive creative dialogue spaces through forum and social networks.
