The pursuit of a sustainable, i.e. environmentally sound, socially correct, economically adequate and ethically acceptable development, is a matter of concern to both individuals and nations alike. It is also a complex process, where science needs to be complemented by political decisions and practical actions, so as to yield the expected benefits. The further matters related to sustainable development progress, the greater is the need to support its implementation by means of scholarly publications, which document and promote research, the results of studies, as well as practical projects. It is in order to support this process, that the journal “Discover Sustainability” has been created. “Discover Sustainability” is part of the Discover journal series, which is committed to providing a streamlined submission process, rapid review and publication, and a high level of author service at every stage. It is an open access, community-focussed journal publishing research from across all fields relevant to sustainability research. The journal “Discover Sustainability” is supported by a prestigious and multi-disciplinary editorial board, composed by some leading experts in the field of sustainable development.
