        Subject: Digital Resources for Education in Sustainable Human Development

Hello,

Can anyone suggest good examples of digital resources used for 
developing and deploying educational programs in sustainable development?

My plan is to focus on human development, so I need to show all the 
human dimensions of sustainable human development, including both 
physical and psychological factors.

Any suggestions?

Sincerely,
Luis

cher willard,

from your recent posts on humanist, I have been wondering why is it that you
are looking to the past when you search for answers concerning the future.
do you really believe that such answers could be found there? it seems to me
that it would be a much more interesting and fruitful endeavor to look for
answers in what is happening in the present, namely the very interesting
developments in nanotechnologies, namely nanocommunication and quantum
information processing... things that you insist on calling "hype".

I truly do not understand what is so important about the past, when our
present is so much more exciting and so much more relevant.

comments?

yours,
