Sustainable Visions
Under the leadership of Jeffrey Sachs, the Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) has exemplified that the best way of tackling sustainable development challenges is through collaboration between all stakeholders. It is crucial to see business take a key role in the SDSN process, and in turn, to witness such enthusiasm on the part of the private sector to contribute meaningful business solutions to the Sustainable Development Goals. The early involvement and robust engagement of the private sector raises the potential for implementation of the recommendations. I encourage governments to demonstrate clarity of leadership and agree on an ambitious set of SDGs soonest, as this will provide the framework that can facilitate the implementation of the solutions offered by business at a scale and speed of impact that our societies and planet so badly needs.
