Abstract_The world is in desperate need of mending after all of the anthropogenic destruction that humans have caused. The Philippine government has prioritized and pursued education for sustainable development (ESD) to address the country’s pressing environmental, social, and economic challenges. However, the integration of ESD into the curriculum is still deficient due to the fragmented nature of the current integration. While concerned agencies are in collaboration towards crafting curricula that will make environmental education a required elective subject in college, baseline data is needed to make actions, especially concerning ESD, data-driven and hence more targeted. Using descriptive research design, this study assessed the ESD awareness and perceptions of 181 randomly selected pre-service teachers (PSTs) in a state university in Central Luzon, Philippines. The study found that 90.1% of the respondents were aware of the importance of ESD. Furthermore, the respondents generally agreed with the integration of ESD in education and showed an average level of ESD knowledge and a positive attitude and behavior towards ESD concepts. No significant difference was observed in respondents’ ESD knowledge when they were clustered as to sex. However, male and
female pre-service teachers had significantly different ESD attitudes. On the other hand, no significant difference was found between the male and female respondents in their ESD behavior. Finally, ESD knowledge was found to be significantly related to both ESD attitude and ESD behavior. Key findings were considered in developing an ESD training program specifically designed for pre-service teachers.
