SUST 3000

Making decisions regarding our individual and collective choices for a sustainable future must account for the uncertainty and complexity inherent to development that is sensitive to ecological health, environmental trajectories, justice, and ethics. We explore several key challenges that confound decision-making and present a variety of decision support tools that can help us integrate diverse knowledge and values for theoretically better outcomes. Throughout the semester, learning related to the use of decision-making tools is supported through a series of tutorials that build on one another, culminating in a final decision-making assessment on a local, current case study.
