The Transformation Labs organizers invite researchers to join this critical effort to ensure a timely and just transition to sustainable development. Researchers can register their ideas on what they see as the key challenge(s) to achieving sustainable development. In line with the GSDR 2019 report, we invite research ideas related to the following sustainable development entry points: 1) Human well-being and capacities; 2) Sustainable and just economies; 3) Sustainable food systems and healthy nutrition; 4) Energy decarbonization with universal access; 5) Urban and peri-urban development; 6) Global environmental commons.

 

Researchers can participate in various ways to help fast-track promising innovations for sustainable development. They can submit research ideas; lead research on selected ideas; and/or participate in discussions to flesh out and advance research ideas. Ultimately, fast-tracked research ideas will be published via a paper in September 2023 - with the aim of informing the next UN Global Sustainable Development Report (the drafting of which will begin in October 2023).

 

This is a great opportunity for researchers to leverage an international platform to fast-track their research and get their ideas in front of policymakers and thought leaders in the field of sustainable development. 

 

Deadline for registration is February 1, 2023.
