Future of Sustainability report

NOW LIVE: LATEST FUTURE OF SUSTAINABILITY REPORT

 

10 years. 5 dynamic areas. 4 possible futures. One 6-18 month opportunity to transform.


Forum for the Future has today launched its latest Future of Sustainability report, entitled From System Shock to System Change - Time to Transform. As COVID-19 continues to irreversibly shock the systems on which we rely, we're all grappling with 'what next?' and the decisions we make, right now, could see us transition into a world of increasing volatility and turbulence - or begin to reconfigure the way we live and work around goals of equity, sustainability and resilience.

We're at a crossroads and the stakes could not be higher. But in an immensely disrupted world, where do we need to focus?

The report reveals five key dynamic challenges already shaping the 2020s - with major implications on human, planetary and economic health - and explores four possible futures emerging from the COVID-19 crisis. We're calling on business, investors, civil society, the philanthropic sector and more to take bold and decisive action in the next 6-18 months. Action set to ensure a future where both people and planet thrive.

It's time to transform.
