dc.description.abstractThese three terms have been used at website of UNESCO: Sustainable development (SD), education for sustainable development (ESD) and the United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (DESD). In this website, it is mentioned that the three terms have the same goal; creating a better world for this generation and future generations of all living things on planet Earth. The aim of this study is to analyze Primary Social Studies Curriculum of Turkey in terms of UNESCO ESD Theme. Data was obtained from Social Studies Curriculum. In this study, Social Studies Curriculum of Turkey was discussed in terms of three perspectives which are stated in UNESCO's Framework for the United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development International Implementation Scheme (DESD). These three perspectives are; sociocultural, environmental and economic perspectives. As a result, in this study, it is concluded that Social Studies Curriculum should be improved in terms of ESD.
