The size, age and focus of your institution may influence your structure. For example, although Brighton University is not labelled as a Transition University, it has been successful in pursuing sustainability. But its five campuses and distributed and diverse staff and student body led to multiple hubs of action across place and structure (see White and Harder 2013).

I’m not sure how much

long-term sustainability there is in project funding. I’ve seen it leading to young, motivated individuals, without much institutional support, working on delivering projects in the present with little prospect for the future. It really requires a capable and creative individual who can continuously

re-invent projects to pull in more funding but ultimately, I believe

that this dynamic is

counter-productive.
