Abstract
<p>When multi-stakeholders in local communities come together to tackle sustainable development problems, they not only offer solutions to local constituents, but also create impact to the broader policymaking process at local, regional and national levels. A United Nations University flagship project, namely a network of Regional Centres of Expertise (RCE) on Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) indicates that local networking for sustainable development, and in particular for sustainable agriculture, can be an effective approach for local communities to employ learning tools in ESD to improve the situation and render positive influence in policymaking. RCEs on ESD, as an innovative platform for multi-stakeholder networking at the local and regional level, has proven to be an effective vehicle for promoting sustainable agriculture, linking sustainable livelihood and ESD, involving farmers, school teachers, students, non-governmental organizations, and other stakeholders in the community.</p>
