The purpose of this article is to illustrate the fact that it is a combination of safety and sustainability. For a better understanding of the essence of the subject matter, the general issues forming sustainable development and the objectives of security education as a transmitter between generations are presented. The key factors of education for security arise from sustainable development objectives. The concept of education for security cannot be tantamount to the anticipated reduced curricula in schools. The concept of security must be promoted not only as one of human needs but as an indispensable determinant of development and vice versa. In order to better understand the message of this text, a study has been carried out on safety education programmes at various levels of education in the European Union. The whole consideration has been contextualised on the basis of an analysis of written sources concerning the state's internal security as and when it comes to global security. Taking into account the significant role of security in the proper implementation of the concept of sustainable development gives sense to the implementation of individual sustainable development objectives in relation not only to global but also regional as well as local conditions.
