The document discusses different models for providing foreign assistance: the disaster relief model focuses on short-term relief after natural disasters; the missionary model provides donations of resources but does not create sustainable local economies; the Oxfam model focuses on long-term development by empowering communities as partners in grassroots programs without using government funds or projects. It questions why more organizations do not use the sustainable and community-focused Oxfam model, and says addressing the gap between developed and undeveloped nations is needed to achieve global peace and sustainability.

This document discusses reconciling the "brown agenda" of improving urban environmental health with the "green agenda" of ensuring ecological sustainability. It outlines key differences between the agendas in terms of timeframes, scales, and priorities. Both agendas aim to improve equity but focus on different aspects. Issues like water, sanitation, waste, and land use illustrate tensions between prioritizing current health needs versus long-term sustainability. Integrating the agendas requires reducing inequities, enabling collective responses, and understanding local environmental challenges.

This document discusses several ethical issues related to food production and agriculture. It notes that population growth is putting pressure on natural resources and food supplies. Exploitation of forests, water sources, and marine resources for agriculture and fishing is degrading the environment. Economic power is also concentrated among a few major corporations. New biotechnologies could help increase food supplies but also raise risks. An ethical food system would work to reduce poverty and ensure fair distribution of food. Global cooperation is needed to address challenges through responsible policies and programs.

Louisiana's Water Innovation Cluster: Is It Ready for Global Competition? A P...Adaptation Strategies
Presentation made at the 2014 State of the Coast, New Orleans Louisiana, a bi-annual conference staged by the Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana.
A review of Louisiana's Water Innovation Cluster status and potential.
Abstract
The rapid growth of Louisiana's coastal restoration science and technology assets is paralleled by the growth of business resources to fulfill myriad project needs. In the public sector, the responsibility and processes for implementing projects are clear, but in the private sector, roles are distributed, speculative and unclear. Many institutions and organizations in Louisiana seek to further develop the state's research, education, engineering and related restoration assets into a globally competitive set of industries with exportable expertise and products that help the state capitalize on its water challenges. Globally, similar efforts are identified (and often branded) as water clusters. This presentation explores the phenomenon of the development of water clusters by public-private partnerships and initiatives nationally and internationally in a comparative analysis of where Louisiana stands.
We posit that many opportunities exist for Louisiana to define powerful components of the water sector, and to develop a unique and influential water cluster that embraces many technologies not previously connected in any other state or country. But this undertaking requires leadership plus a statewide culture of innovation, and the responsibility for developing Louisiana's water cluster is in a nascent stage. In the short term, the cluster is growing in a de facto manner. Whether this will produce a truly globally competitive water cluster is a question that remains unanswered.
Implications
The development of a far-reaching, innovative, accessible and inclusive water cluster initiative has potential to strengthen coastal restoration efforts by: streamlining communications; expanding opportunities for innovation; building a strong network locally and nationally in support of projects and funding; reducing redundancy and improving efficiency; and by celebrating and branding Louisiana as a globally important water research and technology leader. It has potential to be a connecting resource across nearly unlimited sectors, with primary impacts in infrastructure, education, business and community development, industry, disaster management and resilience, health, the environment, culture, and tourism. If successfully implemented, Louisiana's water cluster could prove to be as unique and influential as its music, food and joie de vivre.

1) 70% of Kenya's wildlife lives outside protected areas, causing human-wildlife conflict. Protected areas alone cannot sustain wildlife populations.
2) Nature-based enterprises, if supported, hold potential for wealth creation, economic growth, and employment while also supporting wildlife conservation goals.
3) The Kenya Wildlife Service has established interventions like rapid response teams, translocations, and education programs to address human-wildlife conflict. It also supports nature-based enterprises and economic opportunities through its Community Enterprise Department to incentivize conservation on community lands.
Governance of Conservation
Biodiversity conservation has conventionally dealt with management aspects, but over the last decade the issue of governance, i.e. who decides and how, has gained prominence, resulting in crucial paradigm shifts in protected area and other conservation policies and practice.
Design for humanity USA 2020 Raymond
Over the last 21 years, PARK has worked with Design Leaders and Design Teams all over the world, helping them to maximise the business and consumer impact of Design. As we look forward to the next 21 years, it’s clear that the business landscape is changing, and the companies that win in the future will be those that make a positive contribution to the world - those driven by an authentic, deep-rooted purpose. At PARK, we believe that this shift creates a significant opportunity for Design Leaders to step-up and help business leaders address some of the world’s most pressing environmental and social challenges. If you’re an established Design Leader that believes Design can do more; join us this November at Raymond as we seek to collectively re-think the role of design, and work towards a humanity-centered future.
Incorporating ecosystem and conservation values into CSR planning and action:...
The document discusses the need for partnerships between conservation organizations like the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and businesses to incorporate ecosystem values into corporate social responsibility planning and actions. IUCN is the world's largest conservation organization, bringing together states, government agencies, and NGOs. It argues that partnerships are important because ecosystems provide valuable services to society and the economy, businesses face increasing operational and regulatory risks from ecosystem degradation, and coordinated investments between groups could maximize benefits for both conservation and development. The challenges of building effective partnerships and a path forward of relationship building, developing multi-stakeholder strategies and coordinating investments are outlined.

This document provides an overview of the concepts of a green economy and poverty eradication. It defines a green economy as one that improves human well-being and social equity while reducing environmental risks. It then discusses green economists' views and provides definitions for aspects of a green economy such as renewable energy and clean transportation. The document also critiques some mainstream conceptions of the green economy and discusses how poverty is defined and approaches to reducing poverty through improving health, education, infrastructure, employment, and productivity. It concludes by comparing strategies in China, India, and Brazil and noting that a transition to a green economy could help reduce poverty and vulnerability over the long term.

Social Media & Executive Leaders
This document discusses the benefits of CEOs using social media and their current lack of engagement on major platforms. While only around half of large company CEOs currently use social media, consumers' perceptions of companies are strongly influenced by their perceptions of the CEO. The top three social media platforms used by CEOs are Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook. Within five years, social media interactions are projected to increase 256% and become one of the top customer engagement channels. However, many CEOs make excuses for not participating, such as claims that social media is not relevant or provides no ROI. But 76% of other executives believe CEOs should use social media, and 80% of employees would prefer to work for a social CEO. The

Dc ucp 600 for lc
The document discusses several articles from UCP 500 that were not carried over to UCP 600. It provides rationale for why certain articles like those covering revocable credits, unclear instructions, discrepant documents notices, freight payable/prepaid transport documents, other documents, and expiry dates were removed. The key points are that many of the old articles stated obvious points or were no longer necessary given advances in technology and practices. However, the absence of specific rules does not remove the duty of care of banks to properly create credits and amendments.

Use of Public Transport in Pandamic
Public transportation can help reduce the spread of COVID-19 by implementing safety measures. Staff should wear masks and gloves and disinfect vehicles between trips. Passengers should also wear masks and use hand sanitizer. Contactless fare payment options and expanded bus service would encourage ridership while maintaining safety. Redirecting transportation funds could help improve and expand public transit during the pandemic.

• Corporate Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility
• KYOSEI & TRIPLE BOTTOM LINE (TBL)
• One of the fundamental characteristics of a corporate is perpetuity. In the eyes of law, it is treated as a separate legal entity which can hold assets and bear liabilities, can sue and be sued.
• The word sustainable is derived from sustain or sustained. The synonyms of the word sustained as per the Collins Thesaurus include perpetual, prolonged, steady.
• Sustainable development is a broad, concept that balances the need for economic growth with environmental protection and social equity.
• WCED recognized that the achievement of sustainable development could not be simply left to government regulators and policy makers. It recognized that industry has a significant role to play.
• Four fundamental Principle of Sustainable Development- Principle of Intergenerational equity; Principle of sustainable use; Principle of equitable use or intergenerational equity; Principle of integration.

Second is cooperating with labour. Third is cooperating outside the company. Fourth is global activism, and fifth is making the government/s a Kyosei partner
• In 1999 Elkington developed the concept of the Triple Bottom Line which proposed that business goals were inseparable from the societies and environments within which they operate.
• The emergence of corporate responsibility, from being a niche interest of environmentalist and pressure groups to one public. Concern, has in part, stemmed from the realization that corporate governance and social and environmental performance are important elements of sustained financial profitability.
Corporate Social responsibility
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) refers to voluntary actions that companies take to contribute to social good and environmental sustainability. The concept of CSR first emerged in the 1950s but grew in popularity in the 1990s. While some large Indian companies integrated CSR for decades, it remains an emerging concept in India overall. Critics argue that stronger regulations, not just voluntary measures, are needed to ensure companies behave responsibly regarding social and environmental impacts.
Rights and Accountability in WASH (India) Arickal Dash and Gosling (revised)
The document summarizes insights from human rights-based WASH projects in India. It finds that communities broadly understand water and sanitation as essential human rights. However, while duty bearers acknowledge their responsibilities, accountability mechanisms are fragmented and dysfunctional in reality. The projects worked to empower marginalized groups to claim their rights and raise awareness among duty bearers. This included using legal mechanisms, advocating at various government levels, and strengthening local committees. However, ensuring accountability remains challenging due to short timelines and the need for extensive capacity building among stakeholders.

Overpopulation and poor waste management in growing cities will be a major environmental challenge by 2030. Cities need sustainable planning to accommodate 5 billion additional people, including compact development, green spaces, and public transport prioritizing pedestrians. Growing populations strain waste management systems and increase risks like flooding. Proposed strategies include developing smaller satellite cities to distribute populations, upgrading waste facilities, encouraging sustainable consumption, and engaging communities in waste reduction. Individual actions like having fewer children and consuming less can also help mitigate overpopulation impacts.
Environmental management concepts
Environmental management aims to control human impact on the environment to preserve natural resources and improve human welfare. It focuses on developing and implementing environmental policy. Sustainable development meets present needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs. India faces many environmental issues like pollution, degradation of land and forests, and loss of biodiversity due to factors like population growth, urbanization, and industrialization. The national environmental policy aims to mainstream environmental concerns in development and achieve conservation, equity, and sustainability.
Economics, Environment, and Sustainability
The document discusses economic systems and sustainability. It describes different types of economic systems like free market systems and how governments intervene. It also discusses strategies to shift economies to be more environmentally sustainable, such as full-cost pricing and reducing poverty. Monitoring economic and environmental progress through new indicators is also covered.

What sustainability means to me
A subject that is at the core of nearly every conversation I have, my goal was to simply show others how I frame sustainability, and then how I take the steps I do. I tend to look past the environmental and investment focuses that have come to define sustainability towards systems and program, and it was through this lens that I really looked to focus the 30 or so who were in attendance.
As it is through this lens that I have developed my own platforms and solutions in China.
Urban Health Reading Pack B - Intersectoral Responses
1. This document discusses several sectors that influence urban health, including access to services and markets, housing, water and sanitation, transportation and communications, and healthy public spaces. It notes that local governments are key to coordinating between these sectors but often have limited capacity.
2. The document then provides more details on several specific sectors. It discusses the need for better coordination between local governments and health ministries on urban health services. It also discusses the relationship between housing and health, and the importance of communities, NGOs, and local governments working together on water and sanitation issues.
3. Finally, it discusses the importance of considering health in urban planning and developing policies to create smoke-free public spaces
Economics, scarcity, choice
The document discusses the basic economic problem of scarcity and choice in resource allocation. It explains that resources are limited but human wants and needs are unlimited, so choices must constantly be made about what to produce, how to produce it, and who receives goods and services. These choices involve trade-offs, with selecting more of one thing necessarily meaning less of something else. The concept of opportunity cost, which measures the forgone benefits of the next best alternative choice, is also introduced.
SD-ESE-MERGED-PFDS.pdf
This report provides an assessment of global progress towards achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). It finds that:
- Significant progress has been made towards achieving many of the MDGs, including reducing extreme poverty, improving access to clean water, and increasing primary education enrollment.
- However, goals related to maternal and child health, and environmental sustainability still face major challenges. The needs of Africa and other regions require increased focus.
- Sustaining development progress will depend on maintaining commitment to inclusive economic growth, social inclusion, environmental sustainability, and democratic governance. The upcoming Sustainable Development Goals aim to build on the successes and lessons of the MDGs.
Sustainability Defined
The document discusses different definitions of sustainability from Wikipedia and Washington State University that focus on environmental aspects. It then discusses how increased awareness of issues like global warming, cleantech investment, and high oil prices have led to more traditional definitions focused on phrases like "carbon footprint" and solutions like carbon offsets and green jobs. However, the author feels sustainability is about more than the environment and includes issues like urban planning, healthcare, and building communities. The author advocates for individual action and engagement in the community to be agents of change.

IE Application - Express Yourself - Question G
G. Do you think that the lifestyle of the inhabitants of your town or city reflects behavior that is in line with the concept of sustainable development? In your opinion, what should be improved?
Development Of A Sustainable Development Essay
The document discusses sustainable development and provides examples of how a lack of sustainable practices has negatively impacted communities. Specifically, it notes that estimates project the world's population will reach 15-36 billion by 2200. To support this large population, sustainable development is needed to ensure resources are available for future generations. The document then gives two examples: in Chile, deforestation led to flash floods that caused property damage and loss of life; in Madagascar, similar deforestation practices hurt communities.

Government's role in design
- 1. GOVERNMENT’S ROLE IN DESIGN KEY TERMS Group 4
- 2. Choice Editing Choice editing is the practice of shifting the field of choice for mainstream consumers. This means cutting out unnecessarily damaging products and getting real sustainable choices on the shelves.
- 3. Unsustainable Products Sustainable Products Products that are not environmentally friendly . For example, gasoline powered cars. Products that are environmentally friendly. For example, CFL lightbulbs.
- 4. TravelSmart TravelSmart is a program that has been introduced by Werner Brog which targets individual households and asks people to start walking, bicycling, or taking the bus or train instead of driving which in return is good for your health and a sustainable planet.
- 5. Transit Oriented Developments Using high powered rail systems provide sustainable and comfortable transportation and have shown to cut residential car use in half, and residents save 20 percent on their household income by having one less car per household.
- 6. Infrastructure Physical and organization structures needed to operate a society. Changing a city’s infrastructure to allow people more modes of public transportation will reduce the rate of private transportation
- 7. Ecological Footprint How much demand one person puts on the Earth and its resources. A higher ecological footprint means that an individual is putting more strain on the Earth’s ability to regenerate.
- 8. World Health Organization An agency of the United Nations, established in 1948, concerned with improving the health of the world's people and preventing or controlling communicable diseases on a worldwide basis through various technical projects and programs.
- 9. Conditional Cash Transfer Programs that aim to reduce poverty by making welfare programs conditional upon the receivers' actions. The government only transfers the money to persons who meet certain criteria. These criteria may include enrolling children into public schools, getting regular check-ups at the doctor's office, and receiving vaccinations.
- 10. Earth Jurisprudence The philosophy of this term is that humans are not superior to other natural objects but are equal members of Earth’s community.
- 11. Wild Law Laws that provide rights to non-human, natural objects, such as tress, to create equal standing between humans and the natural objects.
