Education for sustainable development has been an important topic among world leaders for more than ten years now, and the urgency have grown with time and we are now supposed find sustainable development as a part of all teaching. The question is if this ambition has been successful or is there an implementation deficit? This report analyses the international and Swedish ambitions concerning education for sustainable development, the educational laws and regulations in Sweden, and also the literature that is used both in education of the teachers in a Swedish university and also the one used in a Swedish elementary school to see if the literature contains the relevant information. The results show that regulations does not all the way support the ambition. Too few courses on the university level contains sustainable development. The literature are relevant on both university elementary level, but the message has to be interpreted right and in not self-sufficient. In conclusion the initial ambition is high, the regulations in Sweden are not strong and clear enough to steer in the right direction, and the analyzed literature contains relevant information but a lot is left for the tutor to point out, on both university and elementary level. This calls for some changes. / <p>2016-09-12</p>
