Abstract
This chapter encourages development practitioners to consider the perspectives of local and indigenous peoples in regard to the idea of "sustainability". This division is highlighted through discussion of what science may consider sustainable practices and community visions for future development. Examples and supporting data are provided by SANREM data gathered during the Cotacachi project.
