ALONGSIDE OR IN RELATION TO MAINSTREAM PROPOSITIONS. Despite the
potential of GLOBALISATION IN ACCELERATING GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT IN
LOW AND MIDDLE-income countries through the spread of technology,
knowledge and information, its current practice in many parts of the
world has led to processes that are socially, economically and
politically and ecologically unsustainable. Sponsored by SIPA’s
