New Competences to Develop in Students to Help Them Get Involved in Sustainable Development While They Learn Through Inquiry Methods

The sustainability competences field was established because of current complex problems: climate change, desertification, pandemics… These interdependent, contradictory and urgent problems do not have immediate solutions. To solve problems, to take advantage of opportunities, to become agents of change and managers of a society in transition, learners should develop key competences in sustainability. In sustainability science, researchers recommend the development of many key competences linked to complex problems analysis and societal transformation.
