ProSPER.Net: An Academic Network for Education for Sustainable Development
The network for the Promotion of Sustainability in Postgraduate Education and Research (ProSPER.Net) is a network of several leading higher education institutions in Asia and the Pacific that have committed to work together to integrate sustainable development (SD) into postgraduate courses and curricula. Member institutions involved have strong education and research programmes in sustainable development and related fields.
The ProSPER.Net academic and research alliance is an effort of the ESD Programme at UNU-IAS to bring about understanding and delivery of ESD and SD at the postgraduate level.
The creation of the network and implementation of joint activities are currently supported by the Japanese Ministry of the Environment.
