The Role Of Education For Sustainable Development (ESD) In Dualism Culture In Sumba a) Departemen Pendidikan IPA, Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia, Jl. Dr. Setiabudi No.229, Bandung 40154, Indonesia Abstract Development of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) was crucial in regard to the culture of slaughtering large number of animals during cultural events (procession of death and marriage) not in accordance with the aim of sustainable development. From the data acquired about animal population from Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) in all four districts in Sumba, three of the districts showed that the population of animals slaughtered was decreasing, which was contrast from Central Sumba district. This is a descriptive exploratory research. The instrument used in this study was observatory sheet, questionnaire, interview and other supporting data from corresponding institution. The following data shows that educators who already know and apply the concept of ESD in learning, for elementary school: 25.93%, for junior high school: 44.83% and senior high school 16.67%. The culture of slaughtering animals at cultural events has a direct impact on economic aspects, social aspects, environmental aspects and legal aspects, but there is no policy from the government to provide the best solution. Introduction of the concept of education for sustainable development to the general education is one of the alternatives that must be performed. With the existence of education for sustainable development, it will raise the awareness of the children to find the best solution in the future, so that the dualism culture of slaughtering animals in cultural events could be thoughtfully interpreted, in this manner, the cultural value and the purpose of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) can be achieved mutually.
