Описание: Teaching and Learning for a Sustainable Future: Innovative Strategies and Best Practices delves into the critical global challenges of sustainability and the indispensable role of education in forging a sustainable future for generations to come. This interdisciplinary and multi-sectoral endeavor embraces themes ranging from climate change and biodiversity loss to social justice, poverty reduction, and sustainable development. By integrating environmental, social, and economic dimensions, the book offers a holistic approach to teaching and learning for sustainability, presenting innovative strategies and best practices that can be adapted across diverse disciplines, levels of education, and contexts. Drawing upon a rich tapestry of pedagogical approaches, the book illuminates experiential learning, inquiry-based learning, problem-based learning, and project-based learning as powerful tools for addressing sustainability challenges and opportunities. Additionally, it showcases cutting-edge teaching tools and technologies, including online platforms, social media, virtual and augmented reality, and gamification, revolutionizing the dissemination of sustainability education. The book takes this research a step further by examining how to effectively integrate sustainability into curricula across different educational levels, from primary and secondary education to tertiary and professional settings. It emphasizes the significance of cross-disciplinary collaborations and partnerships, fostering community-based learning, industry alliances, and international cooperation, thus enriching the global discourse on sustainability education. Central to the book's purpose is inspiring educators to embrace sustainable practices within their teachings and equipping learners with the knowledge, skills, and values vital for embracing a sustainable future. The book also serves as a platform for educators, academics, researchers, policy makers, and students to share experiences, insights, and best practices, propelling the evolution of sustainability education.
Описание: This book gives a special emphasis to state-of-the-art descriptions of approaches, methods, initiatives, and projects from universities, stakeholders, organizations, and civil society across the world, regarding cross-cutting issues in sustainable development. There is a perceived need for mobilizing the various stakeholders when attempting to promote sustainability in higher education and to promote best practices, which may inspire further initiatives. But despite this need, there are a few publications handling this matter in a coherent way. In order to meet the pressing need for publications which may document and disseminate examples of best practice on sustainable development at university level, the “Handbook of Best Practices in Sustainable Development at University Level” is being published. This book is produced by the European School of Sustainability Science and Research (ESSSR), through the Inter-University Sustainable Development Research Programme (IUSDRP) and contains inputs from authors across all geographical regions. The book also discusses examples of initiatives coordinated by universities but involving civil society, the private sector, and public sector (including local, national, and intergovernmental bodies). In particular, it describes practical experiences, partnerships, networks, and training schemes for building capacity aimed at fostering the cause of sustainable development at institutions of higher education. Thanks to its design and the contributions by experts from various areas, it provides a welcome contribution to the literature on sustainable development, and it may inspire further works in this field.

This handbook is one in a series being produced by IUCN and its partners to assist countries and communities implement Agenda 21, the action programme of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development. The series will include handbooks on national strategies for sustainable development, local strategies, assessing progress towards sustainability, biodiversity action plans, .involving indigenous peoples, and on integrating population and resource use planning; and regular companion volumes of case studies addressing the key issues of concern to strategy implementation. Many international agreements and action plans now call for countries to undertake national strategies. These strategies seek to involve communities in united approaches to sustainable development. Some are sectoral, such as tropical forest strategies, others are thematic, covering topics such as biodiversity, education or climate change. Still others, such as national conservation strategies and national environment action plans, are evolving to become more comprehensive processes, drawing together economic, social and environmental development actions. This handbook is for people� involved in strategies. It draws on experiences in different regions of the world to present options and examples of the role of strategies in sustainable development. Originally published in 1995

This book presents a complex and thorough theoretical infrastructure concerning the Sustainable Development Goals, challenges and practices, as well as an important set of empirical results that will make a tremendous contribution to the analysis of the key determinants specific to the Sustainable Development Goals. Covering topics such as alternative consumption models, non-profit organizations, and sustainable communities, this is an essential text for academicians, scientists, researchers, students, PhD scholars, post-doctoral students, specialists, practitioners, governmental institutions, and policymakers worldwide.

This book presents the contemporary issues of sustainability and integration of physical and information flow in supply chain. In the individual chapters, the authors discuss new qualitative and qualitative theoretic methods, models and present case studies from business practice. This book might be a valuable source of knowledge for the academics, PhD students and practitioners to deepen their knowledge in the field of logistics and SCM.

Описание: This new textbook provides a comprehensive overview of sustainable tourism framed around the UN`s sustainable development goals. It examines the origins and dimensions of sustainable tourism and offers a detailed account of sustainable initiatives and management across destinations, the tourism industry, public sector and leading agencies.
Описание: Sustainability is a topical subject being emphasized nationally and internationally. Though there are books on environment and climate change, there is lack of a textbook/sourcebook which focuses on organizational sustainability.
The proposed book is expected to bridge the gap and would be appropriate for business schools offering MBA courses on strategic management, CSR, corporate governance and sustainability.
