Andrea Ferrannini – författare

This book introduces an innovative framework for Sustainable Human Development, highlighting how achieving a balance between human well-being and planetary boundaries requires moving beyond growth-focused horizons. Leading experts present integrated approaches, mapping a clear path for future transitions. Chapters explore current and future sustainable and inclusive well-being, using the Sustainable Human Development paradigm and integral ecology perspective to identify the pillars, driving actors and triggering factors for sustainable transitions. Critiquing the traditional overreliance on GDP as a policy metric, they propose holistic measurement frameworks that capture a comprehensive view of well-being. By exploring frameworks, evidence and policies across Europe and the Global South, the book expands sustainability beyond Eurocentrism and helps foster a consensus across theoretical, technical, policy and public domains to promote sustainable and inclusive well-being at all levels. Navigating Transitions to Sustainable Human Development is a key resource for students and scholars of development studies, sociology, environmental governance and political economy. Policymakers and NGO practitioners will benefit from its actionable recommendations for more integral development.
