Circles of Sustainability
We are interested in the question of urban sustainability, resilience, and adaptation because “cities have become the unlikely but crucial zones for the survival of humanity,” says Dr Paul James (Professor of Globalisation & Cultural Diversity, ICS/WSU). So, our interest in this question is simply because “we need to”, in order to survive and thrive in our ‘habitat’, both as individuals and families on the one hand, and as organisations and a community, on the other. We are sure you share this perspective, too.
