The concept of sustainable development was coined by the World Commission on Environment
and Development (the Brundtland Commission) and defined as “a form of development that meets
the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own
needs”.
Development comes in many forms and is not limited to physical development as many may
erroneously assume. Development in a sustainable manner maximises economic, social and
environmental goals whilst utilising resources in an effective and efficient way.
Sustainable development is a challenge which comes with more complicated issues within the
context of small island states like Malta. The management of a comparatively small, and hence
vulnerable, economy which supports a high population and urban density presents a challenge to
strike the right balance between socio-economic and environmental well-being.
Sustainable development avoids ‘boom and bust’ scenarios. The perception that sustainable
development is an environmental issue that limits economic growth cannot be further away from
the truth. On the contrary, by maximising economic, social and environmental goals, a sustainable
development approach seeks to maintain a stable developmental pace, supporting growth whilst
also advocating inter and intra generational solidarity such that any form of development does not
diminish the opportunity for future generations to enjoy the same, if not better, opportunities that
were endowed upon us. Indeed cheating the enjoyment of future generations would be
irresponsible!
