Research on sustainability analysis
Partners:
Integrated Sustainability Analysis (ISA), University of Sydney
Description:
Sustainability analysis is a rapidly evolving field encompassing an expanding and increasingly sophisticated tool kit. Sustainably is making an ongoing contribution to this research effort in partnership with the Integrated Sustainability Analysis group at the University of Sydney. We have contributed to a number of their publications in the Sustainability Practitioners Guide Series, building on a history of collaborative contributions to the improvement of the ecological footprint methodology and its application in the urban water industry.
