Abstract

This chapter discusses the role of education and sustainable development in Pakistan, especially in tribal areas. Forty-six teachers and 28 parents from 15 primary schools were interviewed for this study, and data has also been collected via observational technique. A mixed methods approach employs both qualitative and quantitate techniques. To achieve quality education at any level, especially at primary level, teachers and students should aim at creating the link between culture, pedagogy, and digitalization. Teachers should be competent in the implementation of technology, that is, the use of computers, and have multimedia skills in order to find and adopt pedagogies relevant to class environments. This chapter looks at the current situation Pakistan, and especially in the tribal areas of Pakistan, and suggests recommendations for the incorporation of ESD goals in the single national curriculum, the development of teacher education programs, incentives for teachers and (female) students, and the facilitation of electricity, computer technology, and internet access for all schools.
