Visualizing Sustainable Landscapes

Explore Perspectives

What is a perspective?

Perspectives are different frameworks from which to explore the knowledge around sustainable sanitation and water management. Perspectives are like filters: they compile and structure the information that relate to a given focus theme, region or context. This allows you to quickly navigate to the content of your particular interest while promoting the holistic understanding of sustainable sanitation and water management.

This manual explores the various methods available for visualising social and environmental landscapes as a tool for understanding and negotiating conservation and development trade-offs in order to develop environmentally and socially sustainable solutions.
