Evidence for Hope: The Search for Sustainable Development : The Story of the International Institute for Environment and Development, 1972-2002 - Hardcover
Synopsis
Since the first international environment conference in Stockholm in 1972, there has been unprecedented public concern for the future of the planet and a growing awareness that future development has to be sustainable. The International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) has been at the heart of this growing agenda. In this volume, to mark the IIED's 30th anniversary, leading figures involved during this period draw on their accumulated experience to reflect on the lessons learned and to chart the path for future policy and practice. This covers the spectrum of policy areas from agriculture and resource management to energy, industry and institutional change. It offers an authoritative perspective on three decades of development and green debates, as well as a lively history of this unique institution.
