Universities have a key role to play in contributing to
environmental development and combating climate change. The
chapters within this volume detail the challenges faced by higher
education institutions in considering environmental sustainability,
and provide both a broad view of university engagement and a
detailed examination of various projects. As part of this series in
association with the Place and Social Capital and Learning (PASCAL)
International Observatory, the three key PASCAL themes of place
management, lifelong learning and the development of social capital
are considered throughout the book. While universities have
historically generated knowledge outside of specific local
contexts, this book argues that it is particularly important for
them to engage with the local community and to consider diverse
perspectives and assets when looking at issues within an ecological
context. The chapters in this volume provide new perspectives and
frames of reference for transforming universities by engaging in
the development of resilient communities. -- .
