This paper describes in brief the findings of a research project undertaken by the Institute for Sustainable Futures (ISF) at the University of Technology, Sydney, Australia. The research was commissioned by and undertaken on behalf of the New South Wales (NSW) Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water (DECCW). The aim of the project was to investigate current practices of environmental and sustainability education and engagement within local government in NSW. The research was commissioned by DECCW as the preliminary phase of a larger project that the department is planning to undertake, commencing in 2010.

This volume contains the lectures given at the fourth international Gordon Godfrey workshop held at the University of New South Wales in Sydney from 26 to 28 September 1994. This time our lecturers came from Germany, Italy, Japan, the United States and Vietnam, as well as of course from Australia. There was a total of seventeen lectures. The workshops are jointly organised by the School of Physics at the University of New South Wales and the Department of Theoretical Physics, Research School of Physical Sciences at the Australian National University and are held annually at the University of New South Wales in Sydney. Each workshop concentrates on a different and novel research area of current interest in condensed matter physics. The late Gordon Godfrey was an Associate Professor of Physics at the University of New South Wales who bequeathed his estate for the promotion and the teaching of theoretical physics within the university.
