Abstract
Modern knowledge-based society develops in a continuous and multidimensional fashion. Smooth growth of various fields fuels social changes. It allows individuals to progress and, at the same time, it enables changes which influence the way a knowledge-based society operates. A variety of ideas and concepts are intertwined. One of such concepts - the idea of sustainable development - relates to many aspects of life – the economy, culture and social growth. The better informed we are about how great a treasure our natural environment is, the bigger the chance that we will not let it go to waste. The portrayal of secure and effective means of using the natural resources are the foundation of the respect for nature. An example of a great promotion of the idea of sustainable development and raising the awareness of how essential biodiversity can be is the Jardin Des Science Museum in Dijon, France. This museum is perfectly aligned with the sustainable development ideology thanks to both the contents of their expositions and the way they operate in the local community. The museum is a vital link in a chain of responsibility. The main aim is a balanced growth of cities and local communities in the context of biodiversity. Raising social awareness and promotion of the ideas presented in the Jardin Museum is a good forecast for the future.
