Abstract

The international Decade of Sciences for Sustainable Development (2024-2033) represents a historic opportunity to integrate ethical principles into scientific research and promote sustainable lifestyles. This article explores how major international ethical declarations –such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Earth charter, the World Charter for nature, and the Declaration of Ethical Principles in Relation to Climate change—can guide scientific action toward a deep social, environmental, and cultural transformation.


It highlights the need for ethical public polices, transformative education, and shared responsibility as pillars for systemic chance.
