Sustainability Frameworks and Manifestos

 

What follows in the left column are links to a variety of models or frameworks that attempt to define essential principles for sustainability, sustainable development, or a sustainability education.  On the right are links to various manifestos proposing ways we can pursue sustainability and sustainable development.  Before you dive into these various models and proposals, first check out this model titled Sustainability Infusion Flow Chart generated by Claus Svendsen of Skagit Valley College.  Dr. Svendsen is one of the members of the Sustainability Faculty Learning Community and this model is his take on how sustainability manifests in big ideas, skills, and habits of mind in the college curriculum.
