This will enable you to address issues that are critical to our shared global future, including:- the relationship between humans and environmental change- inequality, migration and identity- population growth and development- human diets and health- politics, economics and sustainability.By examining human development, behaviour and different cultures, you’ll better understand the roots of these issues.
