- Information
Description
This book explores how higher education and sustainability interact in New Zealand, and argues that higher education at present may be contributing as much to unsustainability as it does to sustainability.
It considers how education, and higher education in particular, works alongside a wide range of other life experiences to impact individuals' attitudes and actions.
In turn, it envisions a form of higher education that supports graduates to decide what their contribution to a sustainable future will be.
This book addresses those aspects of higher education that are best suited to fostering the development of students' abilities and dispositions to think deeply, critically and independently about the world, and how higher education will know if it is on the right track if it chooses this path.
