It was built in a participative form with preparatory meetings in Durban, South Africa, in New York and Paris. In Ahmedabad many references were done to Tbilisi. Thirty years before (1977), in Tbilisi (Georgia), had been accomplished the I International Environmental Education Conference. Before Tbilisi the theme had already been rise in the United Nations Conference about Sustainable development held in Stockholm (1972) and in the Belgrade Conference (1975). Until Tbilisi, environmental education was much more known as education for conservation (conservationism). Tbilisi had given a step ahead, consecrating the expression “environmental education”, in the broader vision that we have today. Tbilisi became a divisor in the question of environmental education.
