FREE. Columbia University Course: Introduction to Sustainable Development (ISD)

The Introduction to Sustainable Development (ISD) will close for new learner enrollment on June 15, 2016. Introduction to Sustainable Development was initially provided as an excerpt of our full course, The Age of Sustainable Development (ASD).  Given the overlapping content, we have decided to move all students by June 15 to The Age of Sustainable Development.   About this Course This course comprises three modules of Dr. Sachs' longer course, "The Age of Sustainable Development." This preview course, "Introduction to Sustainable Development" will give you an understanding of the key challenges and pathways to sustainable development - that is, economic development that is also socially inclusive and environmentally sustainable.
