Abstract

This research explores ecocentric sustainability6 cultures in small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Western Australia and when completed will propose a practical framework to facilitate the gradual shift towards such cultures in SMEs. Participants in two preliminary studies demonstrated an understanding of sustainability in relation to the use of resources and waste reduction. Yet, few understood the relevance of and interrelationship between sustainability and nature. This study reflects on these results and describes how they will be explored further.
