One of the important factors that has been difficult to be overcome by each country is poverty, beside unemployment and environmental degradation. To eradicate the poverty is one of the goals of each government in this planet to build a social justice. For instance, among AsianPacific countries, the economic growth has indicated a tremendous progress, but at the same time most people still live beyond the poverty line and the quality of our environment is still unsolvable. Therefore, the postulate “growth first, clean up later” is no longer applicable. The concept of “green growth” which was declared in Soul (2008) by Asian-Pacific countries might be more suitable in integrating sustainable development for social justice, since one of the approaches to be implemented in green growth is how to involve the poor people in developing the economic sector. Involving the poor people is one of the forms of social justice. So, how students understand those concepts and are there any difference in understanding those concepts among level of study, by conducting a comparative research, is the main topic of this paper. An ex post facto method used and involving students who are now at the undergraduate, master and doctorate programs, at the State University of Jakarta. Around 25 undergraduate students (for batch 2 is 39 & 21), 22 master batch 2 is 20 students), and 22 doctorate (24 for batch 2) students have been selected randomly. The instrument for measuring students understanding green growth has been developed based on (1)Sustainable Consumption and Production (Demand-side), (2) green business, (3) sustainable infrastructure, (4) green tax and Budget Reform, (5) Investment in Natural Capital, and (6) Eco-efficiency Indicators. By applying one-way ANOVA, this research reveals that there is significant and very highly significant (batch 2) difference exist among groups being compared, means that green growth education has an impact on students’ understanding about green growth for social justice, especially in sustainable development. Finally, it will be easier for them to socialize and improve the implementation of sustainable development. Therefore, intentionally, it is a basic way for eradicating the poverty by accomplishing social justice in sustainable development through education. 1Presented at International Conference on Education Research (12th Annual Meeting), Seoul National University, Korea, October 26 – 28, 2011. I Made Putrawan : Greengrowth Education for Sustainable: Comparing Students’ Understanding On Greengrowth for Social Justice In Sustainable Development 1 Jurnal Green Growth dan Manajemen Lingkungan Vol.1 Edisi Desember 2012 This is rather controversial while most people are still live beyond the poverty line and some of the environmental problems unsolvable as well. Moreover, concept of sustainable development is too strong just merely to be unreal concept due to its implementation uncontrollable. The evidence of this is our planet is getting warmer from year to year, since this concept introduced for the first time in 1987/1988 in a perspective book entitled “our common future.” In related to get the solutions toward on environmentl problems, many countries have tried several ways and negotiation among industrial and developing countries since Stockholm conference (1972) until a few month ago at the Cancun meeting (2010) by producing some declarations, one of them is Kyoto Protocol, which until now the result is still questionable. Therefore, it might be hypothesized that there is a strong link happens between irrational development which would have an impact not to decrease number of poor people, with environmental degradation, so this unequal impact of development on society would have an impact on social justice, then those poor people would affect on environmental degradation. It is a kind of “devil cycle.” It should be glad to be welcomed is new approach declared in Soul (2008) by Asia-Pacific countries which is called “Green Growth.” This new concept might be promising for eradicating poor people and protecting from environmental destructions, while the economic development is still progressing (sustainable development). So, what is green growth? Green Growth is a policy focus for the Asia and Pacific region that emphasizes environmenttally sustainable economic progress to foster low-carbon, socially inclusive development. Green Growth is a globally relevant approach to sustainable economic growth that was developed in Asia (www.greeng-
