Sustainable development viewpoints
Inspirations
Inspirations: People: Rachel Carson; Bella Abzug-She persuades us to
behave responsibly and teaches women to realize and exercise their power.
Concerns and encouragement
Attributes which should be
addressed in order to approach sustainability: The current direction of trade
policies and the exclusion of women in social and economic decision-making on
all levels. Encouragements: The most exciting developments have been
observed amongst women in communities. (Examples of this were presented at
my talk- "Women's Success in Sustainability: Showcasing Examples."
given at this conference).
Changes needed
Changes needed: Change in the composition of
decision making policies; diverse ways of doing things; change in the thinking
of women and men as well. We need a longer term view of effects of what we do
today.

Concerns and encouragement
Our progress barely touches the
scale of what is needed; how do you catalyze a new industrial/cultural
revolution? The scale of change that is needed is barely understood.
If inertia is the norm of all large institutions (government/private), how can
progress for mass change get anywhere? The lowest common denominator, which
is where we always end up won't be good enough.
Changes needed
We need to restructure our economic incentives
systems to discourage inefficient uses of natural resources and energy.
Environmental NGO's have to move into the economic system and change it from the
inside; we have been too willing to ignore it for ideological reasons.
Miscellaneous comments
I am very interested in issues such as "green
industrial strategy"; the role of environmental NGO's in fostering
environmentally appropriate and restorative businesses; macro-economic changes à
la Paul Hawken's writings.

Sustainable development viewpoints
Inspirations
S.D. Interests: the effects of science and technology on women, and the way
women have viewed their place in the world as a result, especially as this
pertains to the systemic nature of violence against women in our society. I
am also actively involved with working with young women. My career plans involve
women and the law. Inspirations: poetic beauty and poignancy of
Rachel Carson's Silent Spring. It was this woman's foresight, courage and
grace that led me to care passionately about working for change at all levels.
Concerns and encouragement
Concerns, There should be
representation for the voice of the traditionally marginalized. I believe this
will start with finding a voice for today's youth; a sustainable future is
also impossible without more attention to ending violence against women.
Changes needed
List of societal attributes which must be
changed to approach sustainability: move to co-operation away from
competition; pursuit of peace-internationally and in our homes; freedom from
violence and fear of violence; access to education as a right, not a privilege;
forum for the voices of the traditionally marginalized.
Miscellaneous comments
My vision of a sustainable future
includes a choir of missing voices, now singing together in harmony, for
peace...

Sustainable development viewpoints
Inspirations
I
grew up in Saskatechewan, a very unstratified society where there was a strong
sense of social reponsibility in the culture and lots of opportunity. All
the social legislation in Canada emanates from Saskatchewan. This, coupled
with being landlocked gave a great desire for travel. Travel outward also makes
for an inward journey. In the 60's, development meant helping other
people; my commitment to development grew as my understanding grew.
Inspiration comes from my experience as a volunteer with CUSO, enriching
experiences (especially in Africa) seeing the resilience of people and the
heroic efforts they make on their own behalf, and coming to understand the
forces that maintain poverty. Inspirtion also came from some individuals --
Sister Marino with the Grey Sisters in Tanzania, and Margaret Catley-Carlson,
who was a helpful, available mentor and inspired the people who worked for
her. Inspiration also comes from peers learning together as well as from
bosses and subordinates, and most definitely from my colleagues in UNIFEM.
Concerns and encouragement
I'm concerned that the North has
reneged on the financial commitments made at Rio -- overall, ODA (Official
Development Assistance) has dropped by 10%. From a goal of 7%, ODA dropped in
1993 to 2.9% average overall, the lowest since 1973. This is devastating in
view of Rio commitments, and it may make George Bush the only honest man in
Rio! I'm concerned that the promise of creating a new UN institutton with the
Commission for Sustainable Development so fat looks not so new; it's fashioned
along the same lines as other institutions; the upbeat side is that there is
slightly more participation of civil society than other Commissions, which
is the encouraging legacy of Rio. I'm encouraged by the uprecedented and
growing participation of civil socity NGOs in UN processes, and hope that
these good, bright and important people who do such good work at the
community level can manage to avoid getting too caught up in UN activities.
It's important for progressive forces at all levels to find and support one
another. Other areas of encouragement: we've done better on a lot of
environmental issues than we thought, eg., Montreal Protocol; there are some
cases in the private sector of strategic and proactive leadership; a stronger
voice of NGOs at domestic levels, north and sourth, is emerging along with
better links between environment and development NGO's and a growing
understanding that we have to fight poverty everywhere. The biggest and best
thing is the increasing strength of the women's movement; we are in the
midst of a social revolution as witnessed by the reshaping and defining of
the agenda for Cairo. There has been a steady and significant sea change since
Rio, and there are places where the women's vote is making a real difference
in national elections, and there is no turning back.
Changes needed
Insitutions in society have to be able to
lead and manage people we work with in ways that are empowering; top-down
styles are not effective, even in the military. We need to find new and
creative ways to finance human development and security. We have to tackle
people's disenchantment with governance and find the right balance between
state, the marketplace and civil society. We have to link ourselves as people
to what we do and what we say -- we have to integrate our values into all that
we do .
Miscellaneous comments
A real visceral part of being
Canadian is being internationalist, and I would hate to see the country turn
inward when the values, skills and talents we have can be so influential in the
post cold war world. This internationalism comes from a number of sources
-- we grew up with a map of the world in every classroom, which encouraged
curiousity about the world; we are a country of immigrants; we have given more
to the international community than others; Canadians participate more; and
Canada has worked hard to broker constructive decisions; Canada's pragmatic
idealism is of value to the world. Canada is much better abroad than at
home; Canadians don't know how well regarded we are.

Inspirations
Inspirations: definitely people, as well as my own research, readings, and
conferences that I have attended, especially SAVE Tour, EYA (Environmental
Youth Alliance) (even though I think it is middle class and a sell out now),
and a local group (now defunct) Youth Planet.
Concerns and encouragement
Concerns, We need a S.D.
approach in every aspect of our lives. I sometimes get sick of the corporate
focus of a lot of SD materials. S.D. doesn't seem radical enough to change
things (maybe even apologetic for enviromental destruction and corporate
interest). Encouragements: Talking with others who have new ideas and
enthusiasm who are making new plans, and working on projects.
Changes needed
Changes needed: Big question-- essentially a
shift in basic values from $ to life, from growth as expansion to growth as
enrichment, etc.

Sustainable development viewpoints
Inspirations
Inspirations : University courses and knowlege of First Nations culture (ie
respect for land).
Concerns and encouragement
List of concerns which must be
addressed to approach S.D.: lack of awareness about sustainable practices as
well as difficulty in defining them; lack of incorporation of indigenous
knowledge; lack of representation of indigenous people (especially key
decision-making people). Encouragement: progress is slow, but many
young people are better informed than in the past.
Changes needed
Changes needed: courses at educational
institutions (especially public schools) must go beyond recycling as our
children will be the key to change. Sustainable development must be a priority
nationally--we must lead the way. At UD/international level, we must have
trade policies that enforce sustainable development--it must be a global
priority to work.
Miscellaneous comments
Conferences that promote involvement of
underepresented groups are an excellent arena which can promote/share global
concerns and develop strategies. Unless we know what is going on, we cannot
change anything. Accurate knowledge is important.

Sustainable development viewpoints
Inspirations
University courses, and work opportunities as described above have inspired my
commitment to SD. As well, having the opportunity to view strange places
while observing the effects of development on them and the lack of concern
of people in these areas has further inspired my commitment.
Concerns and encouragement
At one time, we had a surge of "environmental
consciousness", but in the last few years, apathy has taken over as
well as a feeling that the world is O.K. now. We need to light the fire again--
the population is exploding, resources are being raped and third world
countries are caught in the squeeze of whether to join the negation of the
major countries or close their doors and exist as they have for eons.
Changes needed
Awareness, awareness, awareness,--- that all is
not as it appears. A slowing down of development, taking stock of what is in
progress right now and what we really need to survive today, tomorrow and the
future. We must look at the alternatives, explore the past, study what is good
and discard the unnecessary. We need a new "revolution of development"
and to do this, we must bring the elders from around the world, the rich and
poor, the business people and the entrepeneurs together to communicate with one
another. We all must ask the question; "how much do we really need to
achieve happiness and how much can we share."
