CEPA: In Conversation – Featuring Karin Fernando

Overview

Sustainable Development is a key thematic that CEPA has been working on in the last few years. Karin Fernando leading the thematic Sustainable Development talks of how the achievements in social and economic wellbeing come with a cost to our planet, which results in higher vulnerability amongst the poorer population.

The video teaches us that sustainable development is about environmental, economic and social dimensions working together and within ecological boundaries. A sustainable framework is a necessity when we talk about poverty alleviation.
