Descriptif
The challenges humanity faces such as climate change water scarcity, biodiversity loss, poverty, or inequality amongst others, put increasing pressure on different organizations to develop solutions to tackle them. Multiple organizations, including businesses, focus on opportunities, namely innovations centered on sustainable development. However, tackling such complex and multidimensional challenges is not straightforward and requires overcoming internal and external barriers (e.g., adopting new processes or reframing existing ones, collaborating with a variety of actors, developing a systems perspective). This course explores the role innovation can play in sustainable development in different settings, namely industrialized and developing countries. We uncover the *what,* the *why* and the *how* of sustainability-oriented innovation in a route that leads us to explore innovation for sustainability in the context of a real challenge.
