“Sustainable development is development which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."
World Commission on Environment and Development
A few key words
• Respect of Nature but also people
• Needs of people, from most basics ones to economic, social and spiritual growth
• Interdependency, between people and between Nature and people
• Limits of the environment, as the earth resources are limited
Dimensions of sustainability
• Environmental
It requires first a proper management of resources, but also: waste reduction, proper wastewater treatment, low emissions, use of renewable energy and eco-friendly materials, etc.
• Social
It integrates all group categories and levels (ethnic, religious, economic, health, etc.). Quality of life, uplifting local skills, impacts on local communities, etc, should also be taken into account.
• Economic
It promotes endogenous growth, which is linked with the creation of new market opportunities, cost reduction through efficiency improvements, creation of additional added value, etc.
