Agenda 21 Realisierungsmöglichkeiten an Hochschulen

Chapter 36 from the Agenda 21 which was held at the Conference for the Environment and Development in 1992 provides suggestions for ?promoting education, public awareness and training“ and important contributions for continuing developments in the universities. The goals which have been mentioned here can only be realized on a long-term basis. A work group at the University in Furtwangen has concentrated on the adaptation of this theme since 1991. After five years, it is now possible to draw a provisional balance: The disciplines of the environment, technology, law and ecology are bound together through a reformed course of studies in the field of process engineering. The certification based upon the EC eco-auditing ordinance offers new prospects for increasing the integration of environmental aspects on a broad basis into the routine university life. The establishment of a regional environmental center provides a possibility for the exchange of knowledge as a joint venture.
