    Content: This volume discusses topics of global sustainability involving sustainability indicators, stakeholders' participation, and technological and strategic advances with the goal of "thinking locally to act globally". Scientists, academics, policymakers, and planners are currently focused on escalating global socioeconomic and ecological issues, such as rising inequality, adverse anthropogenic impacts on the environment, and deficiencies in natural resources. These variables are pushing the earth system's resistance capacity past its breaking point, with additional pressures incurred by a global pandemic. Therefore, this book looks to impart knowledge on participatory learning action research for human and environmental health and well-being. Sustainable development planning and management are needed in these pressing circumstances, and they necessitate an analytical interpretation of ongoing processes, current and future challenges, and an understanding of available tools and technologies. The main sections of the book focus on challenges and management practices for global sustainability, promoting educational values, smart initiatives in urban contexts, and integrating emerging sustainability dimensions in policies and legislation. The primary audience for the work is policy makers, urban planners, social scientists, economists, NGOs, and students, researchers, and educators engaged in environmental social science and sustainability management. .
    Note: Chapter 1-Planning model to provide a practical understanding of sustainability perspectives -- Chapter 2-Local Sustainability: measuring the achievement of the urban indicators -- Chapter 3-Assessing regional sustainability by indicators: implications and emerging challenges -- Chapter 4-Integrated Water Resources Management and urban sustainability -- Chapter 5-Smart Cities and sustainability indicators: a structure proposal -- Chapter 6-Educational factors influencing higher education organizations -- Chapter 7-PRME signatory schools and the Interdisciplinary Approach at Education for Sustainable Development -- Chapter 8-Perspectives across education institution and role to sustainable competencies -- Chapter 9-Promoting stakeholders engagement to make feasible, sustainable development -- Chapter 10-The influence on sustainability practices by stakeholders -- Chapter 11-Managing stakeholders for regional sustainability: challenges and mechanisms -- Chapter 12-Understanding and participatory learning the social impact of sustainability perspectives -- Chapter 13-Corporate Social Responsibility and roles of developers for sustainability in companies -- Chapter 14-Waste management: extending beyond local boundaries -- Chapter 15-Observing technologies to environmental sustainability management -- Chapter 16-Access to sanitation services and human health and gender in emerging economies. -- Chapter 17-Assessing sanitation conditions under the SDGs: assisting SDG 6 -- Chapter 18-Risk management and pandemic moment: what is the role of sustainability management?- Chapter 19-Getting the global goals to sustainability in pandemic time: Are we out of track?- Chapter 20.

    Content: Waste Management and Resource Recycling in the Developing World provides a unique perspective on the state of waste management and resource recycling in the developing world, offering practical solutions based on innovative tools and technologies, along with examples and case studies. The book is organized by waste type, including electronic, industrial and biomedical/hazardous, with each section covering advanced techniques, such as remote sensing and GIS, as well as socioeconomic factors, transnational transport and policy implications. Waste managers, environmental scientists, sustainability practitioners, and engineers will find this a valuable resource for addressing the challenges of waste management in the developing world. There is high potential for waste management to produce energy and value-added products. Sustainable waste management based on a circular economy not only improves sanitation, it also provides economic and environmental benefits. In addition to waste minimization, waste-to-economy and waste-to-energy have become integral parts of waste management practices. A proper waste management strategy not only leads to reduction in environmental pollution but also moves toward generating sufficient energy for improving environmental sustainability in coming decades.

Waste managers, environmental scientists, sustainability practitioners, and engineers will find this a valuable resource for addressing the challenges of waste management in the developing world. There is high potential for waste management to produce energy and value-added products. Sustainable waste management based on a circular economy not only improves sanitation, it also provides economic and environmental benefits. In addition to waste minimization, waste-to-economy and waste-to-energy have become integral parts of waste management practices. A proper waste management strategy not only leads to reduction in environmental pollution but also moves toward generating sufficient energy for improving environmental sustainability in coming decades.

    Content: This volume discusses topics of global sustainability involving sustainability indicators, stakeholders' participation, and technological and strategic advances with the goal of "thinking locally to act globally". Scientists, academics, policymakers, and planners are currently focused on escalating global socioeconomic and ecological issues, such as rising inequality, adverse anthropogenic impacts on the environment, and deficiencies in natural resources. These variables are pushing the earth system's resistance capacity past its breaking point, with additional pressures incurred by a global pandemic. Therefore, this book looks to impart knowledge on participatory learning action research for human and environmental health and well-being. Sustainable development planning and management are needed in these pressing circumstances, and they necessitate an analytical interpretation of ongoing processes, current and future challenges, and an understanding of available tools and technologies. The main sections of the book focus on challenges and management practices for global sustainability, promoting educational values, smart initiatives in urban contexts, and integrating emerging sustainability dimensions in policies and legislation. The primary audience for the work is policy makers, urban planners, social scientists, economists, NGOs, and students, researchers, and educators engaged in environmental social science and sustainability management. .
