'The Handbook of Sustainability Literacy: skills for a changing world' has now been published in paperback. The book arose from a larger project, Soundings in Sustainability Literacy which was coordinated by the EAUC in partnership with a number of other organisations. A multimedia version of the book containing extended chapters and video interviews with authors is available from www.sustainability-literacy.org.

In this ground-breaking book, leading sustainability educators are joined by literary critics, permaculturalists, ecologists, artists, journalists, engineers, mathematicians and philosophers in a deep reflection on the skills people need to survive and thrive in the challenging conditions of the 21st century. Responding to the threats of climate change, peak oil, resource depletion, economic uncertainty and energy insecurity demands the utmost in creativity, ingenuity and new ways of thinking in order to reinvent both self and society. The book covers a wide range of skills and attributes from technology appraisal to ecological intelligence, and includes active learning exercises to help develop those skills.

The EAUC has a limited number of hard copies available for its members. One copy will be available per institution free of charge. These will be allocated on a first come first serve basis. Should you wish to have more than one copy, there will be a charge for postage. To order a copy, please email [email protected].
