Um die Rolle des Haushaltskonsum bei einer nachhaltigen Produktions- und Konsumweise bewerten zu können, ist eine neue Methodik jenseits der gängigen volks- oder hauswirtschaftlichen Ansätze notwendig. Umweltindikatoren und Akteursmatrizen erlauben eine Abschätzung des Beitrags der Haushalte zur Umweltbelastung. Auch im Rahmen integrierter Nachhaltigkeitsstrategien kommt dem Konsum ein hoher Stellenwert zu, in Verbindung mit anderen zentralen Handlungsfeldern und ihren Instrumenten. Bei den derzeitigen Konsummustern erhöht Wohlstand die Umweltbelastung, aber nachhaltiger Konsum kann auch zu Wohlfahrtgewinnen führen.
The objective of this paper is to identify those areas of consumption, in which private households can make significant contributions to environmental sustainability, and to present a transparent and comprehensive set of indicators for them. The analysis of the environmental impacts of households focuses on consumption clusters that permit to depict different life spheres of private households. Two criteria guided the investigation of the relevance of these clusters: · The significance of the consumption cluster, and · The potential influence of households. Resource consumption was chosen as simplified, but reliable representation of environmental pressure dynamics. Growing resource consumption goes together with growing environmental pressures and vice versa, although not necessarily proportionally. The key resources analysed are energy and material consumption, and land use. Based on this analysis, three priority fields for action by households were identified: construction and housing, food/nutrition and transport (in this order). All other consumption clusters can be considered environmentally marginal, providing combined saving potentials of less than 10% of the total resource consumption. Finally, from description of the respective roles of actors based on anecdotal evidence a semi-quantitative "actor matrix" is presented indicating the relative influence of different actors per consumption cluster.

In a complex humanitarian emergency, a catastrophic breakdown of political, economic, and social systems, often accompanied by violence, contributes to long-lasting dependency of the affected communities on external service. Relief systems such as the Emergency Response Units of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies have served as a sound foundation of field work in humanitarian emergencies. The experiences gained in 1994 and 1999 in the Rwanda and Kosovo emergencies clearly point to the need for individual adjustments of therapeutic standards to preexisting morbidity and health care levels within the affected population. In complex emergencies, public health activities have been shown to promote peace, prevent violence, and reconcile former enemies. In all public health training for domestic or foreign service, a truly democratic and multiprofessional approach will serve as good pattern for field work. Beyond the technical and scientific skills required in the profession, however, political, ethical, and communicative competences are critical in humanitarian assistance. Because of the manifold imperatives of further public health education for emergency assistance, a humanitarian assistance competence training center is proposed. By definition, competence training centers focus on the core competences required to meet future needs, are client-oriented, connect regional and international networks, rely on their own system of quality control and maintain a cooperative management of knowledge. Public health focusing on complex humanitarian emergencies will have to act in prevention not only of diseases and impairments but of political tension and hatred as well.
The influence of globalization on the sustainability of consumption is a frequent topic in academic and political debates. Despite this, the scientific understanding of this influence and, even more so, of the consequences for governance strategies in pursuit of sustainable consumption are still weak. In this paper, we therefore inquire into the specific channels of the influence of globalization on the sustainability of consumption. Based on our analysis, we develop guidelines for sustainable consumption governance.
