    This module analyses the concept of sustainable development and the frameworks and policies used to monitor and achieve it. This will then be explored in connection with climate change.  Whilst there is a number of references to the concept in legal instruments both at the international and the domestic level, sustainable development remains a challenging concept to define and measure and its practical implementation remains problematic. The module additionally provides knowledge of challenges and opportunities affecting sustainable development at a global, regional and national instruments and reflects on practical initiatives being used to achieve it and the future research agenda on the topic.
