Technologies for Sustainable Development brings together the best 20 papers from the 2012 Conference of the EPFL-UNESCO Chair in Technologies for Development with the aim to explore and discuss ways to link scientific research with development practices to assist practitioners and reply directly to social needs. In order for technologies to be adopted it is not sufficient that they are low cost and affordable but also socially, culturally and environmentally accepted by the intended users. Technologies for Sustainable Development aims to explore and answer the following three questions: What is an appropriate technology? How can we ensure a sustainable, integrated development? What are the conditions for co-creation and transfer of such technologies? Focusing on the importance of improving working relationships between stakeholders; researchers and decision-makers; between scientists and industrial sectors; between academics and the population; Technologies for Sustainable Development opens a dialogue necessary to create and implement the best solutions adapted to social demands. 000695183 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000695183 650_0 $$aSustainable development$$xTechnological innovations. 000695183 650_0 $$aEnvironmental economics. 000695183 7001_ $$aBolay, Jean-Claude,$$d1954-$$eeditor of compilation. 000695183 7001_ $$aHostettler, Silvia.$$eeditor of compilation. 000695183 7001_ $$aHazboun, Eileen.$$eeditor of compilation. 000695183 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tTechnologies for sustainable development$$z331900638X$$w(OCoLC)841370707 000695183 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000695183 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-00639-0$$zOnline Access 000695183 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:695183$$pGLOBAL_SET 000695183 980__ $$aEBOOK 000695183 980__ $$aBIB 000695183 982__ $$aEbook 000695183 983__ $$aOnline 000695183 994__ $$a92$$bISE
