Resumo(s)
There is a raising of concerns about the need to change environmental behaviours through
economic and social activities. Education plays a significant role in this process, with schools enhancing
the necessary behaviour adoption by youngsters and their community. Thus, the present study
examines the relationship between different variables, such as sustainability (green public procurement,
healthy food activity) and education (course, impact, interactive teaching methods/technology).
We developed a survey regarding education for sustainable development (ESD), with five sections
considering the referred variables. We applied it to 385 Romanian educators and teachers from
kindergarten and primary school. An SEM model was formed to evaluate the relationship between
the associated variables. The results showed that an organisation or school with a long-term plan
incorporating green public procurement will positively stimulate initiatives that help the next generation
adopt good eating habits. Moreover, this eco-sustainable approach affects the creation of
interactive teaching methods and the courses and classes. Consequently, the changes in interactive
methods will positively affect the overall impact. Nevertheless, the relationship between courses and
impact was not significant. This means management decisions regarding green strategies can lead to
a broader change in a school setting, fostering the ESD.
