520 |a Towards a Sustainable University tackles the challenge of sustainability in universities. As educational, research centres, universities should deeply contribute to building a new paradigm based on sustainability. Research on sustainable issues and teaching 'more sustainability' should become goals for the future, yet universities are also a working environment and an organization in which sustainability can be experienced. This book shows how a sustainable university can shape future citizens and future managers following the sustainable paradigm.
