Abstract

Over the last few decades, there has been an increasing focus on ensuring that organisations (both public and private) seek to ensure that decision making around environmental challenges and sustainability is carried out in accordance with an ‘environmental justice’ approach. Based on research carried out over an 18 month period this document provides a suggested Environmental Justice Framework for environmental sustainability decision making by public and private bodies underpinned by principles of co-production.
