SUSDEV MDVS 5204: SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
The world has changed dramatically during the last century, both technologically and socially. We have seen dramatic increases in average lifespan in many countries, the growth of multinational businesses, the depletion of national and natural resources, and the tremendous advances in technology and production capacity in many countries. Sustainable Development will introduce to students the core concepts, principles and practices of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). It examines the environmental, economic, and social dimensions of SDG by focusing on changing patterns of consumption, production, and distribution of resources. This course includes an international focus and examines the impact of globalization, the role of the private sector, and NGOs. This course also considers the evolving models of the economic evaluation of SDG initiatives and programs.
Students with little to no actual experience or background in SDG will become familiar with the core concepts and models associated with SDG and those students who have some experience in this area will benefit by expanding the breadth and depth of their understanding of SDG.
