In these tough and challenging times for the higher education sector, there is no question that there are gems of opportunity present for the sustainability and environmental agenda.
Jonathon Porritt, founder director of Forum for the Future and now chancellor at Keele University, presents an article that focusses on "the critical role that the higher education sector can play in helping to bring sustainable activities into mainstream society."

This is true for all aspects of sustainability, from knowledge transfer to training and community engagement.
