Kursinnehåll
The purpose of this course is to develop a critical and constructive understanding of sustainable development at three different levels – individual, organizational and inter- organizational. The course utilizes a systems approach to explore the dynamic interactions between these different levels in the context of leading and organizing sustainable development. Students are taught how to strategically assess challenges and develop logical arguments for relevant approaches to sustainable development.
The course is based on three perspectives. These perspectives are addressed from a micro to meso-level of understanding. The first perspective focuses on sustainability at the individual/group level. The second perspective addresses sustainable development at the organisational level with a focus on organizational learning. The third perspective focuses on inter-organisational cooperation/collaboration.
The purpose of the course is to develop a critical and integrated understanding of the three perspectives in the context of sustainability and sustainable development.
