Sürdürülebilir Yükseköğretim Kurumları Oluşturulmasında Talloires Deklarasyonunun Rolü ve Önemi

İnsani ihtiyaçların karşılanması amacıyla çevre ve doğal kaynakların yoğun bir şekilde kullanılması ekosistemlerin kendilerini yenilemepotansiyelini riske atmış ve çevre sorunlarına yol açmıştır. Karşılaşılan sorunların çözülebilmesi için mevcut ekonomik sistemsorgulanmaya başlanmıştır. Çözüm önerileri içerisinde, gelecek kuşakların da doğal kaynaklardan yararlanma hakkı bulunduğunuvurgulayan sürdürülebilir kalkınma anlayışı ön plana çıkmıştır. 1980’li yıllardan itibaren sürdürülebilir kalkınma ve sürdürülebilirlikkonularının yükseköğretim kurumları tarafından yoğun bir şekilde tartışıldığı görülmüştür. 1990 tarihli Talloires Deklarasyonuna kadar,sürdürülebilirlik ve yükseköğretim ilişkisi çevre eğitimi odaklı olurken, söz konusu deklarasyonla beraber yükseköğretim kurumlarınınsürdürülebilir olup olmadıkları gündeme gelmiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Talloires Deklarasyonunun sürdürülebilir yükseköğretimkurumları oluşturulmasındaki rolü, önemi ve yarattığı dönüşümlerin incelenmesidir

The Role and Importance of Talloires Declaration in Establishing Sustainable Higher Education Institutions

The intensive use of environmental and natural resources to satisfy human needs has risked the potential of renewable ecosystems andcaused environmental problems. In order to respond to the problems faced, the current economic system has been interrogated. In theresponse emphasizing that future generations have the right to benefit from natural resources, the sustainable development approach hascome to prominence. It has been observed that the issues of sustainable development and sustainability have been intensely discussed byhigher education institutions since the 1980s. Until the Talloires Declaration (1990), the relationship between sustainability and highereducation has been focalized to environmental education, with this declaration, the sustainability of higher education institutions hasbeen brought to the agenda. The aim of this study is to examine Talloires Declaration on behalf of role, importance and transformations inestablishing sustainable higher education institutions.
