However, due to bureaucratic challenges and misconceptions, traditional universities tend to generate knowledge and innovation within the confines of traditional disciplinary knowledge, which falls short of meeting the objectives of sustainable development.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn response to this gap, this book presents a groundbreaking model for greening universities, aimed at fostering the production of green knowledge and innovation within the mainstream knowledge production process. This model, grounded in extensive research, is designed to be adaptable to conventional universities in various regions. By implementing this model, universities can reap numerous benefits at the micro-level, impacting their stakeholders positively.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, this model seamlessly integrates with other knowledge systems, including the natural environment of society, the economic system, the media-based and culture-based public and civil society, and the political system. This holistic approach creates a sustainable knowledge economy that fosters collaboration, innovation, and progress toward a more sustainable and equitable future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy adopting this model, universities can play a vital role in addressing the pressing challenges of our time, such as climate change, environmental degradation, and social inequality. They can contribute to the development of a more sustainable and resilient society by imparting knowledge and skills that promote sustainable practices, renewable energy, and responsible resource management.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, this book offers a transformative framework for greening universities, enabling them to produce green knowledge and innovation that aligns with the goals of sustainable development. By adopting this model, universities can become agents of change, driving positive impact at the local, national, and global levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 355g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 155 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030978525\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shantha Indrajith Hikkaduwa Liyanage","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44307607027962,"sku":"9783030978525","price":83.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_aca81791-58ef-4aa8-9450-96405e98b21f.jpg?v=1688110347","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/producing-green-knowledge-and-innovation-a-framework-for-greening-universities-9783030978525","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
