Quick Report: A. Copsey on the World’s Water Problem (Summary)

Water is a huge and growing global challenge. It is essential to all human activity and a fundamental driver of all socio-economic growth but, as a resource, it is under strain from population growth, development and climate change. Access to safe water and sanitation is the first step out of poverty for individuals. Water accessibility and improved sanitation allows girls to continue their education beyond puberty, enables people to start and grow businesses, and ensures the risk of disease is greatly reduced.

La légende du Colibri

Un jour, dit la légende, il y eut un immense incendie de forêt. Tous les animaux terrifiés, atterrés, observaient impuissants le désastre. Seul le petit colibri s’activait, allant chercher quelques gouttes avec son bec pour les jeter sur le feu. Après un moment, le tatou, agacé par cette agitation dérisoire, lui dit : « Colibri ! Tu n’es pas fou ? Ce n’est pas avec ces gouttes d’eau que tu vas éteindre le feu ! »

Et le colibri lui répondit :« Je le sais, mais je fais ma part.

Not Sustainable Development

As your professor of Sustainable Development, Economy and Society you would have thought that I might at least have sat you down at the beginning of the seminar and given you a clear understanding of that oft-repeated rarely-questioned phrase “sustainable development”.

This Nathalie Nomblot brought most embarrassingly to my attention yesterday when we were struggling to find a good topic for her make-up Quick Report, which I had usefully (!) suggested  she might write on “sustainable development” and “something else” (her choice).  To which she energetically wrote back:  ”In one sentence, could you please give me your definition of Sustainable Development? That would help!”

Quick report: Delpine Tas on Sustainable Development in Turkey

Sustainable development in Turkey
“is a common work / project : imece”

Since several years, Turkey tends to develop the sustainable development by the environmental protection in many departments. However, it’s very hard to develop this process everywhere because culture and traditions are still very present in this country and prime. They are related as a social capital.

That’s why, we will analyse how culture and traditions are defined in Turkey, in order to show that ecology can be officially a good way and recognizing to Kyoto Protocol and then, show that officiously, ecology can be a good gain in developing the International Business for Turkey.

Sustainable Development/Water

I will take for my final paper the same topic of my presentation on the water.Following is the content of my oral presentation. I will focus on the different new options and alternatives to help people have access to clean water and also the new business opportunities coming from this issue.

• Global World crisis of the water resources.
• Inaction will lead to a threat for the human, economic development and the political stability of many regions.
• Despite the vital characteristic of the water, there is a lack of political interest, a bad governance and under investments.
• What are the possible solutions?

Sustainabilty Strategies: Bring in All Local Actors, Views & Implementation Partners

Too often when it comes to new sustainability initiatives, the common  practice is to concentrate on laying the base for the project in close working relationships with people and groups who a priori are favorably disposed to your idea, basically your choir. Leaving the potential “trouble makers” aside for another day. Experience shows that’s a big mistake. Instead from the beginning when w are working with these potential divisive issues we have to take a . . .
