Course description
Our world continues to face difficult and confronting issues relating to our past and present development pathways. This course thus provides foundational knowledge of the principles of sustainable development as a possible way to balance social equity, environmental sustainability and economic needs. This course draws on numerous case studies from around the world to illustrate the complexity of sustainable development issues and their implicit trade-offs.
