Scuola di dottorato in Formazione della persona e mercato del lavoro Lunedì 23, Febbraio Aula 1, ore 10.00-13.00 S. Agostino An introduction to the concept of sustainable development Giovanni Orlando (PhD Goldsmiths, MSc UCL) Postdoctoral Fellow Project ITALY® (Italian TALented Young ®esearchers) Department of Humanities and Social Sciences When did the concept of sustainable development originate and what is its meaning today? The seminar will try to answer this important question by tracing the history of the concept from its genesis to the present day. Sustainable development is an idea that conflates two ambiguous and problematic terms: development and sustainability. During the seminar we will therefore attempt to unpack each of these terms, in order to gain a deeper and more critical understanding of the idea. _____________ La lezioni è promossa dell’Osservatorio CORES e rientra nelle attività del programma di ricerca ITALY® - Italian TALented Young ®esearchers Per informazioni scrivere a giovanni.orlando@unibg.it 24129 Bergamo, piazzale S.Agostino 2 tel. 035 2052 964 fax 035 2052 916 e-mail: formazione@unibg.it Università degli Studi di Bergamo www.unibg.it Cod.
