Sustainability Dimensions

This guide will focus on four Sustainability Dimensions (Environmental, Economic, Educational, and Social) adapted from groupings of the United Nations Sustainability Development Goals:

"The Sustainable Development Goals are a call for action by all countries – poor, rich and middle-income – to promote prosperity while protecting the planet. They recognize that ending poverty must go hand-in-hand with strategies that build economic growth and address a range of social needs including education, health, social protection, and job opportunities, while tackling climate change and environmental protection."
