Mountain Research and Development Vol 40, No 4: How Can Education Contribute to Sustainable Mountain Development?
A multiplicity of educational experiences, programs, and approaches exist or are currently being designed—in, on, or for mountains.

Articles present examples and insights from around the world. Covering a wide range of formal and informal education at all levels, including practical training and lifelong learning opportunities, they provide a basis for future research, policy, and action. The issue was guest-edited by Jörg Balsiger and Martin Price.
