In May 2021, the World Conference on Education for Sustainable Development<\/a> gathered the world\u2019s education and sustainable development communities to grow awareness on sustainable development challenges. \u2018Education for Sustainable Development for 2030\u2019<\/a> is the global framework for \u201cthe development of the knowledge, skills, understanding, values, and actions required to create a sustainable world, which ensures environmental protection and conservation, promotes social equity and encourages economic sustainability.\u201d To be effective, the conversation about sustainable development must include people from all over the globe, whatever language they speak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UN Secretary-General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres recently remarked<\/a> that \u201cWe must act decisively to protect our planet from both the coronavirus and the existential threat of climate disruption.\u201d So we are celebrating the efforts of translators who are informing their communities about the effects of climate change, and bringing more voices into the conversation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
