SUSTAINABLE FUTURES

SFA is inspired by Nobel Peace prize winner Wangari Maathai's concept of the "Three legged stool". It is a metaphor for a stable society, with each leg representing sustainable environmental management, democratic governance, and a culture of peace. Each leg must be stable for the stool to stand, meaning the society will not be able to develop if any of the legs are not strong. SFA believes in this holistic approach. We believe that we live in an interconnected world, where we should not just focus on siloed sectoral approach, but work in interdisciplinary teams, looking at the whole picture... The Sustainable Futures Global Network brings together researchers, practitioners, and communities to address the common goal of a sustainable and equitable world... Our network provides a broad and interconnected range of expertise, experience, and leadership, applied through research, advisory, and education to the most complex and pressing global sustainability needs.
