'Sustainability - Creating the Culture' Conference
Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre, Aberdeen, Scotland, 2-4 November 2005
The Sustainable Development Research Centre (SDRC) is pleased to announce its second annual conference. Following on from a successful conference in Inverness this conference will build and examine further the policy, infrastructure and stakeholder requirements needed to create a culture of sustainability.
Located this year in Aberdeen, the conference will bring together an international and interdisciplinary audience to share new ideas and debate current best practice in sustainable development (SD) environmental management (EM) and corporate social responsibility (CSR).
