The provision of environmental education towards sustainability with reference to the
Inner City Enviro Centre in Tshwane is a comprehensive research project that
describes the establishment and development of the Inner City Environmental
Centre over a six-year period.
This research focuses on the informal education sector and the methods used by
centres, both locally and internationally to provide environmental education and / or
education for sustainability.
The Inner City Enviro Centre is used as a case study. The development of the ICEC
is investigated in terms of the objectives it was to fulfil. The achievements and
difficulties that the ICEC experienced are examined. This was done using document
analysis and by interviewing those involved. This information was then assimilated
and helped the researcher to make informed, objective judgements concerning the
ICEC. Educators working on a project with the ICEC were given questionnaires
which asked questions relating to environmental education and excursions. The data
collected from findings is used to provide guidelines for future development of the
ICEC and for others who might want to embark on similar projects. / Further Teacher Education / M.Ed. (Environmental Education)
