Curriculum Development and Sustainable Development: practices, institutions and literacies

In many countries government policy on both is to some degree entwined. Some organisations and individual practitioners are explicitly concerned with both. Both are subject to fundamental intellectual challenge at a conceptual level. Practitioners in each field have been influenced by a number of similar ideas relating to uncertainty and change. Such practitioners continue to grapple, from their different perspectives, with the problem of whether thought and appropriate action should properly be based on technical or practical considerations.
