Rumours abound that the new(ish) HEFCE CEO, Madeleine Atkins, has been slicing and dicing the funding council's commitments to sustainability. She wants, it's said, more of a hard-edged focus on the environment and less attention given to fluffier social justice stuff so beloved of ESD experts.
But is this true? Well, I never believe rumours unless I've started them myself – then it's a moral obligation of sorts – but we'll find out soon enough when the Council's long-awaited sustainable development strategy is finally unveiled, and inside(r) stories can be told.
