5. Challenges related to domain of action
 tendency for each SD actors to work in silo, less interaction among them, or tend to be sectorial within its authority/mission boundaries
 framework for synergy and partnership has yet to develop.
 require more open minded and develop “boundaries” processes.
 require bridging and linking social capital as well as better governance (well functioning state).
MOST School  to develop foundation toward sustainability.
