dc.description.abstractCritical literacy, described as a combination of the skills needed for independent lifelong learning, is an imperative for the attainment of any of the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations. It develops the individuals to be sensitive to the need to sustain their environments with their acquired knowledge and thereby result in sustainable corporate development. This study, taking the form of critical engagement of secondary data presented in extant literature, delineates the concepts of critical literacy, futures literacy, and sustainable development. It also interrogates the indices of sustainable development and critical literacy to assess Nigerian government and people’s readiness to fully integrate the principle of critical literacy for sustainable development into the curricula of all levels of the country’s education. Appropriate practical steps to be taken by various stakeholders towards education for sustainable development through critical literacy are recommended.
