Exploring Sustainability
We all get, as anthropologists, that it takes lots of different ways to understand why people do what they do and what they’re like.

In sustainability, what we have to get across is that there are not only multiple lines of information that we need to incorporate, but there are multiple ways of knowing the same information.

Khazaleh also includes a link to the American Anthropological Association’s statement in support of Egypt. A great resource!
