Mind the Gap - 26 June 2024
From intention to realisation - What gaps need to be filled and what is the role of business schools for positive change?
Date: 26 June 2024
Time: 12:30 to 17:00 CET
Event
There are many gaps that need to be bridged if we’re going to reach the 2030 target date for meeting the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Under the influence of a cascade of crises (including climate, poverty, education, democracy, debt) the world is seriously off track in seizing the opportunities as well as managing the risks related to the 2030 agenda. Who carries responsibilities for what? What should be prioritized? What’s the role of finance and the private sector?
Overcoming the various gaps between intention and realisation requires future-resilient strategies, a new mindset, organisational capabilities, skills, and the willingness to jointly invest in sustainable business practices. In this discussion, we will be joined by stakeholders from business, government, civil society, and knowledge institutes.
The RSM Mind the Gap event invites everyone – stakeholders from business, government, civil society, and knowledge institutes – to consider and discuss:
- What has been achieved since 2015?
- What gaps need to be filled?
- How can we overcome the gaps?
