Through highlighting the intersectionality of identity and the unique challenges faced by these groups, the book addresses a pressing issue: the often-overlooked barriers that hinder their full participation in sustainable transitions. Organized into three parts, the book first contextualizes the relationship between sustainability and inclusion. It delves into the historical and theoretical frameworks that shape our understanding of marginalization, exploring how disability intersects with various social identities. This foundation sets the stage for an in-depth analysis of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the ways in which they can be made more inclusive, ensuring that no one is left behind. The second part identifies and examines the myriad barriers to inclusion within sustainable practices. It addresses structural, socioeconomic, and cultural obstacles that perpetuate exclusion while also critiquing existing policy frameworks for their limitations in addressing the needs of marginalized populations. Through case studies, the book highlights successful initiatives and innovative practices that promote accessibility and equity, mainly through the use of assistive technologies and community engagement. In the final section, the book outlines actionable strategies for fostering inclusive, sustainable development. It emphasizes the importance of community engagement, participatory decision-making, and the empowerment of marginalized voices. Additionally, it discusses metrics for monitoring and evaluating the impact of sustainability initiatives on people with disabilities, providing a framework for accountability and continuous improvement. This book aims to bridge the gap between sustainability and social justice, offering a roadmap for stakeholders, policymakers, and practitioners committed to creating a more inclusive world. This book targets academics, policymakers, non-profit societies, and activists working at the intersection of sustainability and social equity and serves as a vital resource for those seeking to understand and promote inclusive practices in the global sustainable transition. 410 0$aApproaches to Global Sustainability, Markets, and Governance,$x2520-8780 606 $aIndustrial management$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aCorporate governance 606 $aSustainability 606 $aPolitical planning 606 $aCorporate Environmental Management 606 $aCorporate Governance 606 $aSustainability 606 $aPublic Policy 615 0$aIndustrial management$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aCorporate governance. 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aPolitical planning. 615 14$aCorporate Environmental Management. 615 24$aCorporate Governance. 615 24$aSustainability. 615 24$aPublic Policy. 676 $a658.4083 700 $aShafik$b Wasswa$01815302 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911011345703321 996 $aGlobal Sustainable Transition with Inclusion$94399041 997 $aUNINA
