The main focus of the September issue is an analysis of the main obstacles to sustainable development with specific focus on MDG3 (gender equality) and MDG8 (partnerships for development).

Supplements (September Updates):

  • Supplement 1: Advances in Sustainable Development
  • Supplement 2: Directory of Sustainable Development Resources
  • Supplement 3: Sustainable Development Simulation (SDSIM)

The basic objective of this web-based simulation model is to stimulate discussion on policy priorities. Specifically, what is the top priority .... economic development or human development? In other words, what are the trade-offs between pursuing further economic growth and investing in human well-being?
