This book addresses climate change and sustainability management from a transdisciplinary perspective which encompasses within itself how different humanistic disciplines can culminate with each other to move ahead with the agenda.



Issues of adapting to climate change and sustainability management have been gaining global prominence over the past few decades. There have also been volumes of literature that highlight the technical dimensions of climate change and sustainability across regions and cultures. However, they have had limited strength to bring direct and desirable impact in promoting pro-climate action and sustainability behaviour. The major reason for this is limited inclusion of pluralistic perspectives into human cognition and affect, and resultant limited public acceptability.



Although behavioural science as a discipline has taken a front seat in promoting behavioural transformation, the book argues that other humanistic fields of understanding like education, art, literature, philosophy, political science, sociology, economics, etc., have to be integrated in order to present a holistic standpoint to sustainability literature.

Dr. Parul Rishi has Ph.D. in Behavioural Science (Psychology) from Dayalbagh University Agra. She is involved in postgraduate teaching, research, corporate and professional training, consulting, academic administration and Ph.D. supervision since last 25 years in the Indian Institute of Forest Management, Bhopal, an internationally reputed public funded institution in India under Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change.
