This book seeks to inspire positive change in higher education by exploring the rich notion of the sustainable university and illustrating pathways through which its potential can be realised. Based on the experience of leading higher education institutes in the UK, the book outlines progress in the realisation of the concept of the sustainable university appropriate to the socio-economic and ecological conditions facing society and graduates. Written by leading exponents of sustainability and sustainability education, this book brings together examples, insight, reflection and strategies from the experience of ten universities, widely recognised as leaders in developing sustainability in Higher Education. The book thus draws on a wealth of experience to provide reflective critical analysis of barriers, achievements, strategies and potential. It critically reviews the theory and practice involved in developing the sustainable university in a systemic and whole institutional manner, including the role of organisational learning. Whilst remaining mindful of the challenges of the current climate, The Sustainable University maps out new directions and lines of research as well as offering practical advice for researchers, students and professionals in the fields of management, leadership, organisational change, strategy, and curriculum development who wish to take this work further"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aRoutledge Studies in Sustainable Development 606 $aUniversities and colleges$xEnvironmental aspects$zGreat Britain 606 $aEnvironmental education$zGreat Britain 606 $aSustainable development$zGreat Britain 615 0$aUniversities and colleges$xEnvironmental aspects 615 0$aEnvironmental education 615 0$aSustainable development 676 $a378.1/9610941 686 $aBUS068000$aBUS072000$aBUS099000$2bisacsh 701 $aLuna$b Heather$01541026 701 $aMaxey$b Larch$01541027 701 $aSterling$b Stephen R$01541028 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786274403321 996 $aThe sustainable university$93792962 997 $aUNINA
