Greetings,

To achieve Sustainable Development, a fundamental change is necessary in the way people think and act. I would like to thank and congratulate the United Nations University (UNU) for their great efforts in ensuring advancement of ESD through Regional Centres of Expertise (RCEs) around the world.

In a world where networking is trending, I must say, establishing around 129 RCEs is by far a great achievement UNU has made. Bravo!!!

As we prepare for the Global Conference, it would be prudent to capture everyone's idea in regards to the objectives of the conference. By so doing, I am very sure that the outcomes of the conference would be a celebration to many.

Are there any successes or challenges from your respective RCEs that you'd wish to share?

What commitments do you wish to make (either as an indivudual or as an RCE) to ensure the implementation of ESD beyond 2014?

Thank you,

Hamisi Mkuzi
