100%Open's Union Speaker's do an incredible job of providing excellent content on topics of interest. Our theme: Innovating for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) was a great way for our Unionistas to share their thoughts on this on-going discussion.
9. ● The sharp edge of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, set out in
2015
● About ending poverty, improving health and education, reducing inequality,
and spurring economic growth
● All while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and
forests
Fab facts
UN SDGs
10. 1. The rate of extreme poverty has fallen rapidly: in 2013 it was a third of the 1990 value
2. The proportion of undernourished people worldwide increased from 10.6% in 2015 to 11.0% in 2016.
3. Many more people today are living healthier lives than in the past decade.
4. More than half of children and adolescents worldwide are not meeting minimum proficiency
standards in reading and mathematics.
5. While some forms of discrimination against women and girls are diminishing, gender inequality
continues to hold women back and deprives them of basic rights and opportunities
6. Too many people (30%) still lack access to safely managed water supplies and sanitation facilities.
7. Ensuring access to affordable, reliable and modern energy for all has come one step closer due to
recent progress in electrification
8. Globally, labour productivity has increased and the unemployment rate has decreased.
9. Infrastructure - steady progress has been made in the manufacturing industry.
How are we doing?
UN SDGs
11. 10. Efforts have been made in some countries to reduce income inequality between countries
11. Many cities around the world are facing acute challenges in managing rapid urbanization
12. Decoupling economic growth from resource use is one of the most critical and complex challenges facing
humanity today.
13. The year 2017 was one of the three warmest on record and was 1.1 degrees Celsius above the pre-industrial
period.
14. Advancing the sustainable use and conservation of the oceans continues to require effective strategies.
15. Protection of forest and terrestrial ecosystems is on the rise, and forest loss has slowed.
16. Many regions of the world continue to suffer untold horrors as a result of armed conflict or other forms of
violence.
17. More needs to be done to accelerate progress in global partnerships between national governments, the
international community, civil society, the private sector and other actors.
How are we doing?
UN SDGs
12. Pope Benedict XVI
Not a small job

20. CHALLENGES & OPPORTUNITIES
What is
the
problem?
• A lot of research appears to take place in splendid isolation,
and with not enough focus on outcomes and IMPACT.
Who has
this
problem?
• Governments and funders, HEIs, RTOs and corporate research
centres….as everyone – as beneficiaries of the research!
Why solve
it?
• Linking research to the SDGs can improve impact, reduce
duplication (waste) and foster new collaborations.
But..
• Researchers need help understanding how their work relates
to the SDGs and finding people to collaborate with.
21. THE SOLUTION
(OR PERHAPS JUST PART OF IT..)
The SDGs Game
• A multiplayer, in-person, card-based game that simulates taking
the “real world” into the year 2030.
• Designed in Japan in 2016, this experience has become a powerful
and impactful social phenomenon in Japan, earning extensive
media coverage and reaching over 12,000 participants in 2017.
22. Typically between 18 and 48 people.
Lasts around 3 hours.
Challenges beliefs and perceptions.
Participants collaborate to create a new world.
(Not always played with hands in the air.....)

“Clear and compelling
evidence that brands
with purpose grow.
Purpose creates
relevance for a brand, it
drives talkability, builds
penetration and reduces
price elasticity"
Alan Jope,
CEO Unilever
75. We are bringing humanity’s best existing tool for rapid
tech transition and behavior change to bear on the
climate change crisis:
best talent -> the startup
Our initial mission and “master metric”:
400megatonnes CO2
WE ARE climateseeds
76. 76
LITTLE TIME FOR
CLIMATE GOALS
EXISTING TECH
NOT ENOUGH
POLITICAL AND
PUBLIC CHANGE
TOO SLOW
THE CLIMATE CHANGE PROBLEM
There is very little time to limit
temperature rise to below 2
degrees through reducing global
CO2 emissions by a minimum of
45% by 2030
• Existing technologies,
given inertia, are not going
to be enough
• The current clean
technology base is not
global or adapted to the
global south
• System, behavior, and net-
zero or net-negative
carbon changes will come
through new tech and
new business models and
Public opinion in northern
Europe is not globally shared,
and political solutions will be
piecemeal
77. THE INNOVATION PROBLEM
77
SLOW REGULATORY
CHANGE
MOST MONEY GOES
TO NON-
INNOVATION
LARGE COS TOO
SLOW
Regulatory change will come– but
investment by MNC/global players will
mostly follow it, not anticipate it
Much of new “climate coalition” money
will just get swallowed by the energy
rollout, not go to needed new
breakthroughs
Large Co’s are focused on running their
existing businesses: they are slow at
business model innovation, cross-
disciplinary innovation and behavior-
change dependent innovation
The most talented people out there are
held back by corporate and cultural
convention. This is wasting the potential
of what they can achieve
