New book: Strong Sustainability for New Zealand

Sustainable Aotearoa New Zealand (‘SANZ’), in collaboration with New Zealand National Committee of UNESCO released a report called: Strong Sustainability for New Zealand: PRINCIPLES AND SCENARIOS.

One of the authors, Klaus Bosselman, Earth Charter Affiliate, said “the report defines the concept of sustainability around Earth Charter principles – including ecological integrity – and what it may mean for New Zealand: what is wrong with the way NZ is going, why is “triple-bottom-line” so flawed and how can we envisage the transition towards a sustainable society?”

SANZ is a national network of academics and professionals. The Board of SANZ has produced this ‘think tank’ piece to stimulate debate.  For more information visit: www.phase2.org.
