Planning for Higher Education Journal

Statistics demonstrate that our present land use and consumption patterns present the challenge of meeting contemporary needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. Higher education has a special obligation to answer this challenge because it plays a role in producing the leaders, policy makers, and citizens of the world, and it uses a large share of resources to do so.

This overview of the articles in this theme issue discusses methods for incorporating sustainability into higher education across a wide array of institutional realms.
