Which is correct : IS or ARE
 

I am writing up a Comenius Project summary and there is a question as to which is correct is or are in the following sentence. Tell me what do you think and why? 

 

At the crux of each of the aforementioned IS /ARE  the Social and Economic Dimensions, the Conservation and Management of Resources for sustainable Development and the Means of Implementation.

 

 

Thanks in advance

I �d say "are" because of "dimensions" being plural.

Cheers,

here is the right answer:we choose "are" in this condition. because you mention many things : the Social and Economic Dimensions, the Conservation and Management of Resources for sustainable Development and the Means of Implementation.
