BUILDING CONSENSUS FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE: PUTTING PRINCIPLES INTO PRACTICE

The acceptance of "sustainability" as a practical policy goal and the increasing use of consensus-based processes in the resolution of a broad array of resource management disputes are two important trends of the past decade. This book springs from a marriage of those trends. Experiences in Canada and elsewhere have shown that strategies for achieving sustainability generally need active involvement from, and clear understandings among, a wide array of sectors and groups. This book is a working guide to the use of consensus building in developing the policies and in implementing the programs and projects necessary to achieve a sustainable environment, economy, and society.
