The principles and goals of sustainability pervade governance policies and strategies at all levels of public and private sectors. However, the meanings of sustainability remain contested and the challenges in progressing change are significant. In this course you will critically engage with the concepts and debates around sustainability and how different actors have responded. In particular, you will examine the processes by which social change has been pursued in a range of contexts. Through this course you will focus on how we might assess and (re) design strategies and interventions to increase the priority given to sustainability issues in our cities, regions, communities, workplaces and homes.
