Towards an anthropology of sustainability?

This panel invites papers from academic and applied contexts, both ethnographic and theoretically driven, which consider the relationship between anthropology and the issue of sustainability.

Saffron Woodcraft will be presenting a paper about the role for applied anthropology in understanding how the idea of social sustainability is translated from academic concept to professional practice of urban planning.
