Collaborate to deliver on the SDGs

I RECENTLY had the chance to talk to 30 undergraduate business students from Switzerland about the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs, which are interlinked goals forming a “shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future”).

While we do not yet know just how things will unfold, one thing is for sure: the scale, scope and complexity of the economic and social transformations required to achieve these goals are such that no one sector – government, business, civil society or academia – will be able to manage alone.
