Sustainable development

Sustainable development - New Delhi Academic foundation 2010 - 141 p.

We see the expression "sustainable development" everywhere these days, but what does it actually mean? How do production and consumption influence sustainability? Is globalisation of the economy helping or hindering it? Can sustainability be measured using the traditional tools of economic analysis? What can governments, enterprises and citizens do to promote it?

The OECD produces data, research and policy recommendations on many issues related to sustainable development, including climate change, co-operation with developing countries and corporate social responsibility. OECD Insights: Sustainable Development draws on that expertise. It argues that to be sustainable, development has to be based on progress in three areas at once: the economy, society and the environment.
