The approach is interdisciplinary in nature. Where other programmes may approach sustainability around the science, technical or finance lens, this Programme delivers a learning experience that supports multiple functional roles, especially in policy and organizational governance, and thereby integrating sustainability throughout an organization rather than focusing on a sector or functional role.
This interdisciplinary learning, is reflected in the eclectic teaching team who provide the necessary components of sustainability – policy development, the environment and economics interface, the potential role of sustainable investment in shaping an inclusive economy, the merging of for-profit and non-profit mechanisms for novel business models, the use of technology for social good, the integration of social and environmental practices into the supply chain, product development and circular economy.
