why conversations on sustainability matter
With less than a decade to implement sustainable solutions to the world's biggest challenges, more action is needed to meet the Sustainable Development Goals: a shared blueprint of peace and prosperity, for people and planet.
The private sector, along with governments, civil society organisations, and youths, plays a pivotal role in catalysing the urgent change needed.
From tackling climate change and food insecurity to overcoming digital disruption and supply chain vulnerabilities, we need to make the decade ahead the Decade for Decisive Action.
