CSD Uppsala and its Programmes CSD Uppsala has its core staffs and also three programmes: Baltic University Programme (BUP) Centre for Environment and Development (CEMUS) Uppsala Water Centre (UVC)

BUP and its Contributions Uppsala University, through BUP supports and promotes sustainable development in the Baltic region BUP not only contributes to SD through teaching and research in region, but also involved heavily in the ’third’ area, the public service BUP strives to become an active partner in social, cultural and environmental aspects of regional development

Sustainable Development as a Concept: The Brundtland Commission (The World Commission on Environment and Development) Report: Our Common Future defines, Sustainable Development: “Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” It implicitly rejected the 1970s idea of environmental limits to growth. By accepting the desirability of growth, it focused on how development should be achieved. To achieve SD, there is a need to redefine strategies that will enable nation-states to move the ‘usual’ process of growth and development to integrate economic, social and environmental considerations in their decision making.

ECONOMIC SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENTAL SOCIAL (Jakobsson, 2000)
