abstract:

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are recognized as global goals. Towards the achievement of those goals, many actions are under way in the private sector in Europe and the US. In Japan too, both the government and the private sector, including the Japan Business Federation (Keidanren), are taking initiatives towards achievement of the SDGs. However, since the scope of the goals is so broad, some are still considering what actions to take.

Under the leadership of GRIPS President Akihiko Tanaka, the National Graduate Institute for Policy Studies is taking actions to contribute to the achievement of the SDGs. In this GRIPS Forum event, panelists from industry, academia and government will discuss the challenges posed by SDG work, and the roles that cities and transport sector entities can play so as to contribute to and intensify actions towards the SDGs.
