Abstract / Description

Human nature is ‘driven by the desire for clarity, certainty and control even in the situations that are intrinsically doubtful, ambiguous and volatile’. So my task today to sketch out the future of sustainable development is very difficult because the world ahead is going to be complex, uncertain and riveted by unknown and imponderables. On the other hand, you expect me to narrate if not in finely drawn lines but some vague contours a picture of what the future holds out for us and our generations.
