Rural poverty and regional inequality in Lesotho, this paper illustrates the persistent educational problems of the highland region

The study aims to explore the historical culture of structure and agency regarding educational interventions, particularly environmental education and education for sustainable development within initial teacher education in Lesotho. I will explore educational interventions and projects locally, regionally and internationally in order to find out the best approaches to engage teacher trainers from different faculties into a participatory action research study to develop an integrated critical curriculum espousing sustainable development.

In the year 2000 the Education for All (EFA) goals of the Dakar Framework for Action and the multi-sector Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) were endorsed in rapid succession by most of the world’s governments (UNESCO, 2000; UN, 2000).

There is growing interest at TCD in research and teaching on issues related to international development. This is motivated not only by the potential for making a contribution to poverty reduction, and to sustainable human development worldwide, but also by the intellectual challenge of understanding the processes that are involved.
