Sustainability embraces many concepts. It requires in-depth cross-disciplinary knowledge and the ability to think differently and creatively about current and future development challenges. A wide range of geographical and cultural perspectives inform the research papers presented in this text. From games to governance, technology to teaching, design to decisions the dimensions of sustainability are explored. This publication showcases emerging research being conducted across the Dorich House Group of European member Universities and some of their partner institutions.
