Theological Significance of Sustainable Development

SAMBUR, Bilal

There is a combat today between economy, ecology and technology. In order to reduce this combat, a new approach developed under the umbrella of sustainable development. As a result of various environmental problems, the relationship between religion, development and environment became a hot issue in the field of religion. Today, a theological approach known as ecotheology is very influential among the followers of various religious movements.In this regard, one of the main questions is this: What are sustainable values for a sustainable development? In this paper, we will argue that religion could play an important role as a provider of sustainable values for a sustainable development and the necessity of spirituality for it
