Around the world groups are working on initiatives that attempt to bring meaning to the term 'sustainable development' and move it from being a theoretical concept into practice.
This directory attempts to identify those leaders that are bringing solutions and know-how to the sustainable development challenge. The networks presented encompass an enormous range of subjects such as new job opportunities, healthier and more environmentally benign forms of production and more sustainable ways of living and consuming products. The directory provides an up to date overview of Design for Sustainable Development (DSD) networks and as such it can be a valuable resource for decision makers, employers and trade union representatives, voluntary and community organizations and researchers in the European Union.
New network sites are added on a regular basis - please do submit yours now.
