Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to elucidate the perspectives for developing the curriculum in connection with consumer education and environmental education (Education for Sustainable Consumption). I examined: 1) papers on ”education for sustainable consumption” by UNESCO-UNEP and OECD, and 2) the part concerning consumer education in textbooks of environmental education.
The results showed that there was not a theory about consumer education such as the one by Bannister & Monsma. Therefore it is necessary to connect the theory of consumer education to the theory of environmental education.
