  6. 9. Resilience Assessment in Strategic Planning for Sustainable Development

    Author : Sellberg My; Garry Peterson; Norström Albert; Sara Borgström; Rebecka Milestad; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; environmental planning; natural resource management; practitioner perceptions; societal planning; transdisciplinary research; transformation; Transition Towns;

    Abstract : The framework of resilience thinking within sustainability science highlights ability to deal with change and uncertainty, and promotes more adaptive forms of management and governance. While the concept of resilience is increasingly being adopted into policies and planning, as well as by grass-roots movements, environmental and development organizations, many practical approaches to resilience lack theoretical backing.

  7. 10. Unpacking Sanitation Planning Comparing Theory and Practice

    Author : Jennifer R Mc Conville; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Participation; Sustainability; Urban; Procedural planning theory; Decision-making; Sanitation; Process; Planning practice;

    Abstract : Lack of proper sanitation is linked to significant negative impacts on environmental and public health, economy, and human dignity. Despite the efforts made to reach the United Nations Millennium Development Goals, the world will miss its target of halving the percentage of people without access to improved sanitation by 2015; and there is general agreement within the field of sanitation that the sector has failed to deliver substantial improvements to the most needy.
