Scientists, academics, policymakers, and planners are currently focused on escalating global socioeconomic and ecological issues, such as rising inequality, adverse anthropogenic impacts on the environment, and deficiencies in natural resources. These variables are pushing the earth system's resistance capacity past its breaking point, with additional pressures incurred by a global pandemic. Therefore, this book looks to impart knowledge on participatory learning action research for human and environmental health and well-being. Sustainable development planning and management are needed in these pressing circumstances, and they necessitate an analytical interpretation of ongoing processes, current and future challenges, and an understanding of available tools and technologies. The main sections of the book focus on challenges and management practices for global sustainability, promoting educational values, smart initiatives in urban contexts, and integrating emerging sustainability dimensions in policies and legislation. The primary audience for the work is policy makers, urban planners, social scientists, economists, NGOs, and students, researchers, and educators engaged in environmental social science and sustainability management. 001454567 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed February 15, 2023). 001454567 650_0 $$aSustainable development. 001454567 650_0 $$aEnvironmental policy. 001454567 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001454567 7001_ $$aSingh, Pardeep. 001454567 7001_ $$aMilshina, Yulia. 001454567 7001_ $$aBatalhão, André. 001454567 7001_ $$aSharma, Sanjeev$$c(Assistant professor in environmental sciences) 001454567 7000_ $$aMarlia Mohd.
