  ABSTRACT: This study explores the extent to which environmental education content and pedagogical skills are incorporated into teacher training programs, focusing on ecological literacy, understanding of environmental issues, and practical teaching methods. Through directed content analysis of the B.Ed. curriculum based on frameworks from UNESCO and similar bodies, the research reveals that while the curriculum covers basic instructional strategies, it lacks practical approaches to environmental education and community-based engagement. The literature discussed the Environmental Education, SDGs, environmental conditions, sustainable education and their associations with one another. In achieving the goal of the research, the researcher had employed Qualitative research. Content Analysis research design was used. The study concludes that future educators require a more holistic curriculum that emphasizes critical thinking, community involvement, and sustainable practices, equipping them to effectively address environmental challenges and promote ecological awareness within their teaching. Recommendations call for enhancing the curriculum with practical applications to foster both ecological literacy and sustainable practices among trainee teachers.
