摘要：Every society is unique in terms of opportunities, challenges and aspirations of citizens among others. This paper investigates the importance of curriculum restructuring to the benefit socio-economic development in developing societies. The main argument of this paper expresses the need to localize the educational curriculum to address specific needs and challenges facing a society, beginning from the local communities where educational institutions are situated, to the state before moving towards realizing global goals. The study also explored other factors that are essential for enhancing teaching and learning activities to achieve the overall educational goals and objectives. The review of concepts of curriculum and sustainable development were made with a special focus on the interrelationships of the two in realizing significant socio-economic development. The paper recommends that the curriculum of developing societies should be designed to ensure globalization: Meeting local needs before global needs.
