“…This concurs with Li et al (2016), and Lun (2012), who attest a harmonious life is possible when humans comprehend the importance of living in equilibrium with nature and each other. Hence, while critics argue western culture struggles with the notions of the interdependence between humans, nature and society (e.g., Li & Ernst, 2015; Rayman‐Bacchus & Radavoi, 2019; Strife & Downey, 2009; Vining et al, 2008), these tensions appear somewhat less evident in urbanised China. Thus, these cultural values are insightful to understanding these different phases of sustainable consumption behaviours in China.…”

This paper investigates the connections between harmonious cultural values, pro‐environmental self‐identity and consumers' sustainable consumption behaviours spanning acquisition, usage and disposal. It evaluates the relevance of Chinese cultural values that purport harmony between humans, nature and society that is, man‐nature orientation, and horizontal/vertical dimensions of individualism collectivism. The results from the online survey with 503 urbanised Chinese reveals these values disparately influence this consumption. Despite the limited direct behavioural effect of these harmonious values, pro‐environmental self‐identity plays an important role in mediating their indirect effects on the five behaviours. This paper therefore extends theorisation of the values‐identity‐behaviour relationship from a cultural‐values orientation perspective. It offers new insights to understand urbanised Chinese consumers sustainable consumption behaviours.

“…With the concern to advance the learners' comprehension about learning Batik, elaborating the elements of cultural program and activities is coming up with investigating the strategy in the pathway of maintaining the cultural sustainability through Batik learning programs for being concerned amongst the public society mainly on the regional and national level [29]. The practical stage of Batik as co-curricular activities is attempted to assist in forming the culture sustainability which underlies the components of love for the country, responsibility and cooperation, and caring for the environment [48]. In terms of the phase of learning Batik, there is a need to develop the framework referring the essence of cultural sustainability.…”

“…Furthermore, the continued practice of Batik patterning could run smoothly because of the support from all parties, namely from all school members and parents [46,47]. With this in mind, schools can provide full support on it in order to strategize a means of developing students' skills [48]. The factors that support co-curricular activities could be pointed out with the facilities such as tools and equipment available.…”

As the application of colored designs on cloth using wax in certain areas in decorating items of clothing, Batik is made through several steps that come from drawing the pattern on the paper followed by imitating the pattern on fabric, which is called ngeblat. The next phase is followed by drawing the pattern using wax, which is called mencanting. The subsequent step is the process of coloring the pattern of Batik, called pencoletan, and then subsequently followed by color-locking on Batik through covering the Batik with wax, namely basic color dyeing. This process is called menembok. The final step is making the panting process through washing, called nglorod. This process should attempt to maintain Batik with cultural sustainability, as its process contains several values, such as discipline, creativity, independence, patriotism, responsibility, cooperation, and environmental care. Based on this background, this paper attempts to examine the Batik’s cultural design and to explore its sustainability through co-curricular school program activities. This study focuses on examining the potential in the process of the application of colored design through elaborating the supporting and interfering factors in a co-curricular learning program of Batik. The analysis was made through several points, namely a co-curricular learning program of Batik for enhancing cultural sustainability, a co-curricular learning program of Batik for enhancing national culture and community responsibility, and co-curricular learning of Batik for sustainability and environmental accountability.

“…In recent years, climate policy, cultural policy, and climate action have attracted attention from scholars. The global climate policy and SDG agendas are highly interconnected [24], and cultural policy can and should play a more active role in shaping social change [25]. Since the implementation of the UN SDGs in 2015, the Web of Science core library has published 2218 articles related to SDGs.…”

Global Action on SDGs: Policy Review and Outlook in a Post-Pandemic Era

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development provided brand new goals and action targets for human well-being and development, but the COVID-19 pandemic has cast a shadow on the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is therefore essential to provide a reference for making policy adjustments and transformations to promote the realization of SDGs in the post-pandemic era. Based on a literature review of the progress and policies of SDGs across countries worldwide, we find that research on sustainable policies has rapidly increased since the SDGs issued in 2015 with particular focuses on eco-environment, sustainable policies, green economy, sanitation and health, and water sanitation. Most countries are in the process of nationalization, institutionalization, and universalization of the SDGs through incorporating the SDGs into national development frameworks, enabling extensive participation and negotiation mechanisms, and promoting the SDGs’ national publicity. Countries of different economic and institutional backgrounds demonstrate divergent development pathways, priorities, measures, and progress in the implementation of SDGs. Despite significant global progress during the last five years, the North–South divide emerges in the policy action and achievement of SDGs. The least developed countries in sub-Sahara Africa and South Asia appear to be difficult or even unable to implement the SDGs and monitor the progress. In the post-pandemic era, particular attention shall be given to integrating SDGs and achieve synergy among goals, concretizing short-and medium-term priorities toward the SDGs targets for all countries, strengthening multilateralism and global cooperation among countries and continents, providing reliable data and approaches for real-time impact assessment and process monitoring, and promoting an inclusive engagement and integrative implementation with multiple stakeholders and consortiums.
