The handbook offers a consistent set of strategies for sustainable development: gaining awareness and creating visions; partners and coalitions; assessing risks; determining options and consequences; mobilizing resources; and achieving and sustaining results. The handbooks is comprised of an essay and a series of workshop components, including a wide variety of case studies.
