Abstract: Based on 15 depth-interviews conducted in French primary schools catering for children aged from 6 to 12 years, our results highlight the importance of the contribution of all educators in raising children's awareness and engagement to environmental issues. Educators such as teachers, but also catering staff and curriculum facilitators, play a central role in education for sustainability with a double commitment: awareness raising and behavioral change. Educators' commitment mobilizes existing and innovative resources to achieve their goal.
