Description
You’ll be introduced to an interdisciplinary approach to framing, analysing and solving complex global environmental problems. Scientific, technological, economic, social, ethical and policy aspects will be addressed within a framework of ecologically sustainable and socially just development. Case studies -- such as sustainable cities, biodiversity management and water management -- will each offer two or more potential solutions for discussion.
