The Transdisciplinary Journal of Education and Sustainable Development Studies (TJESDS) is an open-access, peer-reviewed platform dedicated to advancing knowledge and practice in education and sustainability. As the climate crises grow increasingly complex and the need for integrated and inclusive research has never been more urgent. TJESDS emerges in response to this need, embracing a holistic vision rooted in sustainability. Thus, the journal has its core mandate in the following areas. The Environmental and Health Perspective serves as a foundational pillar, highlighting the interdependence between ecological systems and human well-being. The journal encourages research on biodiversity, climate change, pollution, environmental health risks, and sustainable natural resource management- especially as they affect public health outcomes.
