Dear Phuong Nguyen
See http://www.naturaledgeproject.net/ and their new book 'Engineering
Education and Sustainable Development - a guide for rapid curriculum
renewal'
at http://www.naturaledgeproject.net/TNEPSedSD.aspx; also see my co-edited
book 'Sustainability Education'
http://www.earthscan.co.uk/Portals/0/pdfs/Sustainability_Education.pdf - see

Hello Phuong Nguyen
In my research related to sustainable buildings and behavioural change I
came across this book which has a paper entitled 'Curriculum greening in
engineering education. Experiences from Dutch and Spanish Technological
Universities'. I hope it's of use.

Subject: Engineering Education for Sustainable Development in Vietnamese
Universities
Dear colleagues,
My name is Phuong Nguyen and I am a PhD student at the International
Research Institute in Sustainability (IRIS), University of Gloucestershire,
England, with the principal supervisor being Prof. Daniella Tilbury.
I am writing to seek your help and support for my literature review and any
suggestions on my PhD research.
The study is entitled ‘Engineering Education for Sustainable Development in
Vietnamese Universities: Building culturally appropriate strategies for
transforming the engineering curriculum towards sustainable development’.
The study features two stages: the 1st stage entails a mapping of current
movements towards sustainable development in Vietnam and the responses of
the engineering community; the 2nd stage features 3 case studies of
Vietnamese universities. The aim is to understand contextual and cultural
influences which helps to build appropriate strategies for the
transformation of the engineering curriculum for sustainable development.
I am working on the literature review at the moment and am looking for any
studies and publications on Engineering Education for Sustainable
Development and in general, Education for Sustainable Development related to
Vietnam and the Asia-Pacific region. I would be grateful if you could
suggest or provide me with any relevant information. Many thanks in advance.
With best wishes,
.....................
