Postgraduate Diploma in Asian Sustainable Development
Course Code: P1026
The Postgraduate Diploma in Asian Sustainable Development provides an opportunity for graduates in the Asian region to study the central issue of global and local sustainable development externally. This issue, defined by various United Nations conferences and publications, has many elements to it, hence all aspects of government, the economy and civil society are being examined in the light of sustainability. The policy focus is on how global and local wealth can be created in ways that have less resource use and environmental impact and greater ability to make liveable communities.
The course builds on two core units, and then can be applied in different areas including: urban regional sustainability, renewable energy, environmental management and policy, and ecotourism. Case study material is drawn from the Asian region and projects will be done on local issues of relevance to the students.
