Behavior change for sustainability – with introduction to strategic sustainable development, 6 credits
This course is one of a group of three courses on behaviour change for sustainability. This version is a shorter version, suitable for students who need or want to take 6-credit, instead of a 7.5-credit, course and who have not previously studied strategic sustainable development (SSD).
The purpose of educating students in behaviour change for sustainability is to provide organisations and communities with knowledge and skills that are useful for promoting sustainable development. Transitioning towards sustainability is a complex challenge and considerations on human behaviour are important for succeeding with the transition. The knowledge and skills are applicable in many contexts, for example, in commercial or public sector sustainability work, in grass-roots action or in other work seeking to contribute to sustainable development.
