intro

This collection is the results of ongoing attempts to gather relevant tools, frameworks, methods, and courses that facilitate engaging with sustainable topics and incorporating sustainability in one’s innovation and entrepreneurial activities.

The hope is to create an interactive guide to direct users toward the most relevant (set of) tools, methods, or frameworks for their specific purposes; sort of a wizard to narrow down the possibilities and clear the cognitive clog of navigating a large portfolio of tools and frameworks.

Please note that this is by no means a complete and exhaustive collection. It is evolving and will hopefully become more extensive as time goes by. If you’re visiting this page for the second time, please make sure to empty your browser’s cache or use private mode to see the latest changes.

If you are aware of a resource that should be included in this platform or have feedback on organization, UX/UI, or any other aspect of this platform, please email me at yashar.mansoori@chalmers.se.

toolkit organization

The organization of the ENHANCE toolkit was informed by a thesis project titled ‘A Conceptual Data Model for Sustainability Tools’ authored by Laura Karina Enciso López & Socorro Rae Lopez at the Chalmers University of Technology’s Department of Technology Management and Economics. This thesis work is supervised by Yashar Mansoori. The research utilized a content analysis and the development of a conceptual data model to structure the toolkit.
