Venn Diagrams

This Venn diagram sample shows how community elements overlap. It was designed on the base of the figure 1 in the course "eStrategies for Local Governments" from the website of the Southern Rural Development Center (SRDC), the Mississippi State University.
"Ultimately, the goal of this curriculum is to position a community for success as they develop web-based strategies for community and economic development. In support of this goal, the authors use a conceptual model that incorporates four fundamental elements (applications) of a community: government, business, education and community groups (Figure 1). Using the Venn diagram, it shows that each of these elements overlap with another, finally culminating in “Quality of Life” where all four overlap."

The Venn diagram example "Community elements overlapping" was created using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Venn Diagrams solution from the area "What is a Diagram" of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

This Venn diagram sample depicts the path to sustainable development.
"Sustainable development is an organizing principle for human life on a finite planet. It posits a desirable future state for human societies in which living conditions and resource-use meet human needs without undermining the sustainability of natural systems and the environment, so that future generations may also have their needs met.
Sustainable development ties together concern for the carrying capacity of natural systems with the social and economic challenges faced by humanity. As early as the 1970s, 'sustainability' was employed to describe an economy "in equilibrium with basic ecological support systems." Scientists in many fields have highlighted The Limits to Growth, and economists have presented alternatives, for example a 'steady state economy', to address concerns over the impacts of expanding human development on the planet."
