Abstract: | Problems of sustainable development and environmental protection pose a challenge to humanity unprecedented in scope and complexity.
Whether and how the problems are resolved have significant implications for human and ecological well-being. In this paper,
I discuss briefly recent international recommendations to promote sustainable development and environmental protection. I
then offer a perspective on the roles and prospects of the university in promoting sustainable development and environmental
protection. |
