SUMMARY:Inner Development Goals
DESCRIPTION:What Inner Shifts or human growth needs to happen in order for us to reach the SDGs collectively? \nThe Inner Development Goals is a framework launched in 2022 to support the achievement of the 17 SDGs.\nThe starting point for the IDG initiative was the reflection that the SDGs provide goals and a vision of what needs to happen\, but progress along this vision has so far been disappointing because we lack the inner capacity to deal with our increasingly complex environment and challenges. \n“The success of an intervention depends on the interior condition of the intervener.” Bill O´Brien \nThe IDGs framework maps which abilities\, qualities or skills we need to foster among individuals\, groups\, and organizations that play crucial roles in working to fulfill the SDG. It involves a range of cognitive and emotional skills. \nThe 5 Categories with the 23 skills and qualities:\n– Being – Relationship to Self\n– Thinking: Cognitive skills\n– Relating: Caring for others\n– Collaborating: Social Skills\n– Acting: Driving Change \nWatch this video (https://vimeo.com/643897255) to learn more about the IDG and the scientific advisors which are involved\, such as:\nAmy C. Edmondson\, Ph.D.\, Harvard Business School\nJennifer Garvey Berger\, Ph.D.\, Harvard University\nOtto Scharmer\, Senior Lecturer\, MIT Sloan School of Management\nPeter Senge\, Senior Lecturer\, MIT Sloan School of Management\nRobert Kegan\, Ph.D.\, Harvard University\nDaniel J.

SUMMARY:Advancing careers & the SDGs: how a co-curricular program prepares students to make a difference in their professional paths
DESCRIPTION:While many agree that the SDGs should play a critical role in our students’ education\, helping students to connect their passions and career goals to be aligned with these global goals promises to both benefit them and our society in general. The University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s SDG Scholar Program (housed within their College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources)\, seeks to both spark curiosity about the goals and help students chart their professional paths to be aligned with them. With one aim of the program being to students’ professional networks\, we work to illuminate lesser-known and innovative careers\, normalize non-linear professional paths\, develop critical thinking and cultural competency\, and bring students together to problem-solve with peers with different life experiences than themselves. \nLearn more about the program (and potentially join us as an SDG expert\, if you’re interested!) by attending this session about creatively re-combining resources and connections to benefit students\, our countries\, and the world. \nPresenter: Brianne Wolf\, coordinator of global learning and engagement strategies\, College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources\, University of Nebraska-Lincoln \nRegister: https://unl.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJUuf-ihrjkvHtCaGd6tALbcYl7WxCtWO-x3

SUMMARY:How to integrate the SDGs in academic programs: lessons from a 3-year bottom-up approach at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid and European Alliance EELISA
DESCRIPTION:Most University students are unaware of the SDGs; a significant percentage of Faculty aren’t. There are many ways to overcome these barriers at Universities. This event is meant to discuss two methods that Universidad Politécnica de Madrid has pursued solely and jointly with other European Universities. Both are bottom-up but are guided and stimulated from the top. The event is intended to describe these initiatives and show the results. \nPresenters: \nAlberto Garrido\, Vice-Rector UPM\, Coordinator of EELISA\nIgnacio González Tejada\, Associate Vice-Rector UPM\nMaría Luisa Martínez Muneta\, Associate Vice-Rector UPM \nOrganizer: Universidad Politécnica de Madrid and European Alliance EELISA \nTo register: https://upm.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZEsdumtrT4jHta4qL95GH1zGu-0xGqFNMCK

SUMMARY:Global Shared Learning Classroom con metodología COIL y desarrollo de competencias éticas y ciudadanas.
DESCRIPTION:Bajo el proyecto TEC GLOBAL SHARE LEARNING CLASSROOM y la metodología COIL\, dos universidades ITESM (México) y URV (España) se unen con alumnos en dos materias integrados en equipos internacionales\, que bajo uno de los 17 ODS de la Agenda 2030 cada equipo investiga\, mapea y propone soluciones viables\, a corto plazo para coadyuvar en algunas de las metas del ODS otorgado y que tenga impacto real  (social/ambiental) con acciones concretas en su territorio (México y España) \nHemos trabajado las dos docentes desde 2020 cada semestre con diferentes grupos de alumnos de manera consecutiva este 2023. Participan estudiantes de 2º curso de los Grados de Pedagogia y Educación Social de la Universidad Rovira i Virgili; y estudiantes de diversas disciplinas (negocios\, derecho\, ingenierías\, administración\, comunicación\, arquitectura\, etc.) del Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey. \nSe organizan tres fases concretas: Icebraker\, a través del cual hay actividades de presentación y organización de los equipos a través de la plataforma Zoom y la herramienta Padlet; en una segunda fase se desarrolla la Actividad Colaborativa (de investigación y mapeo) con la que analizan la problemática en ambos países y crean y llevan a la práctica los  proyectos con impacto social/ambiental apegado a las metas de los 17 ODS de la Agenda 2030;  se finaliza con una reflexión final sobre sus aprendizajes\, avances en el desarrollo de las competencias de comunicación intercultural\, nuevas tecnologías\, ética\, etc. a través de esta última etapa presentan sus proyectos y el impacto de los mismos en un pitch en vídeo sintetizando un ensayo que han construido a lo largo. \nTodo este proceso lleva acompañamiento personalizado de las dos docentes\,  quienes desde sus universidades van coordinando a los equipos. Las actividades tiene listas de cotejo que guían a los estudiantes a legar a las metas establecidas. Todo el proceso se va evaluando e impacta en la calificación de las materias de ambas universidades. \nLas herramientas digitales que se utilizan en las tres etapas son: Zoom\, Padlet\, Slack\, Google Drive-Site\, WhatsApp\, entre otras. \nSiempre con el objetivo de mejorar las perspectivas y miradas globales de nuestros estudiantes y así lleguen a ser personas más vinculadas a la sociedad y aprendan a descubrir que ellos y ellas también pueden dar respuesta a las necesidades de su entorno\, con acciones pequeñas y viables\, ejerciendo así una ciudadanía activa y global. \nProfesoras: \n-Dra.

SUMMARY:Journées Scientifiques – Scientific Days (en français)
DESCRIPTION:’objectif principal de cette journée scientifique est de faire découvrir les travaux effectués dans les différents centres de l’INRS sous forme de présentations vulgarisées et d’aborder les nouvelles thématiques qui occupent la sphère scientifique mondiale. \nComme l’objectif principal de la conférence est la vulgarisation scientifique et que la diversité des domaines de recherche de l’INRS est vaste\, nous avons effectué un choix de thèmes et de sous-thèmes plus général. Le thème principal de la conférence sera donc le suivant : Perspective de développement durable\, enjeux et opportunités. Notons que ce dernier permet également de tenir compte des épreuves difficiles ayant été vécues par les étudiants depuis la dernière année. Cette conférence offrira une belle opportunité aux universitaires de montrer leur persévérance malgré les conditions plus difficiles. \nLes différentes présentations seront divisées suivant les trois sous-thèmes suivants: “Fill the gaps”\, “Change the world”\, “Recherche et éthique”. La Direction scientifique de l’INRS remettra deux bourses de 200 $ pour la présentation et l’affiche qui illustreront le mieux le lien entre la recherche et un ou plusieurs Objectifs de développement durable (ODD) de l’ONU. \nPresented by the Comité d’organisation des Journées scientifiques de l’INRS\, Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS)\, Québec City\, Quebec \nenregistrer: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScKX_65PkoKFcGHw5oTnX9wR6jAx1PbYAz3W4Vs6-vwpGWzQA/viewform

SUMMARY:We Demand FASHION 2024 SDG 12: Bazaar & Small Business Sustainability (4 March 8:00 am – 6 March 17:00\, Philippines\, PHST)
DESCRIPTION:Event information: https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=828201339320867&set=a.467110008763337\n  \nFast fashion and social media have created a perfect storm in the fashion industry. Social media platforms have made it easier for fast fashion brands to reach a global audience and promote their products. However\, this has also fueled the rapid production and consumption of cheap\, disposable clothing\, with significant environmental and social consequences. Thus\, the Internationalization and Linkages (InterLink) Office of San Pedro College aims to address this phenomenon through We Demand FASHION: Forward-Thinking\, Attainable\, Sustainable\, Humane\, and Innovative Options Now. \nThis project will be conducted during Interlink Week\, which is on March 4 to 6\, 2024 where the San Pedro College community and beyond will complete various projects supporting the skill augmentation of students and globalization efforts. \nWe Demand FASHION aims to provide students and business owners an avenue to hone their entrepreneurial skills through retailing secondhand apparel in an Ukay-ukay Bazaar. This event is open to serve fellow students\, faculty\, and staff to introduce and practice sustainable efforts as stakeholders in the ever-growing clothing industry. Furthermore\, this event is opened by a seminar including themes of career building\, the consequences of trends and fast fashion\, and consumer welfare\, all centered around creating a positive economic\, social\, and environmental impact. \nDuring the Ukay-ukay Bazaar\, the vendors will consist of different business owners and student entrepreneurs who will set up their stalls at the start of each day and subsequently be asked to pack up at the end of each day of the event. Food vendors will also be promptly invited to increase customer traffic and provide diverse options for students to choose from while visiting the bazaar. \nTarget Audience\nSecondary and Tertiary Students of San Pedro College\nSecondary and Tertiary Faculty Members of San Pedro College\nSan Pedro College Personnel\nLocal Businesses of Davao City\nDavao Colleges and Universities Network (DACUN) schools\nInternational Partners in University Global Coalition

SUMMARY:UNESCO: An Overview of the Pact for the Future (presented in English and French; 15.00-16.30 CET)
DESCRIPTION:Register at: https://unesco-org.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_rzQCe0TFSyiGLw2QqiD_ew#/registration\n  \nThe UN Summit of the Future: Multilateral Solutions for a Better Tomorrow\, New York\, 22-23 September 2024\, aims to enhance cooperation on critical challenges and address gaps in global governance\, reaffirm existing commitments including to the Sustainable Development Goals and the United Nations Charter\, and move towards a reinvigorated multilateral system that is better positioned to positively impact people’s lives. An action-oriented outcome document\, Pact for the Future\, is expected to be agreed by Member States through intergovernmental negotiations on issues they decide to take forward. \nThe effects of inequality\, poverty\, conflict\, climate change\, and the adverse impacts of technology – amongst others – are causing severe threats to the world. As the UN Secretary-General asserted in Our Common Agenda\, ‘Humanity faces a stark and urgent choice: a breakdown or a breakthrough’. Awareness of potential catastrophe and dedication to transformation for better futures provides opportunities to mobilize collective intelligence towards just and sustainable futures for all. \nSpeakers in the first UNESCO Chairs Seminar of 2024 will provide an overview of the zero draft of the Pact for the Future. UNESCO Chairs and other experts will have the opportunity to react to the zero draft\, which comprises a chapeau and the following Chapters: \n1. Sustainable Development & Financing for Development\n2. International Peace and Security\n3. Science\, Technology and Innovation and Digital Cooperation\n4. Youth and Future Generations\n5. Transforming Global Governance. \nIf agreed by governments\, a Global Digital Compact and a Declaration on Future Generations would be annexed to the Pact for the Future. \nIn this Seminar\, UNESCO Chairs will interact with invited experts to discuss the zero draft\, and to consider how UNESCO Chairs and research partners might engage with these issues from their diverse intellectual and geographic vantage points. Subsequent UNESCO Chairs Seminars (April to July 2024) will focus on the substance of each of the 5 themes. \n  \nOpening remarks: Sobhi Tawil\, Director\, Future of Learning and Innovation Division\, UNESCO \nOpening presentation: ‘The Pact for the Future – zero draft’ Zazie Schafer\, Director\, Bureau of Strategic Planning\, UNESCO \nUNESCO Chairs and research partners\n• Charles Hopkins and Katrin Kohl\, UNESCO Chair in Reorienting Education\ntowards Sustainability\, York University\, Canada\n• Vernor Muñoz Villalobos\, Head of Policy & Advocacy\, Global Campaign\nfor Education; & Education and Academia Stakeholder Group (EASG)\,\nCosta Rica\n• Susan Osireditse Keitumetse\, UNESCO Chair on African Heritage Studies\nand Sustainable Development\, University of Botswana\, Botswana \nComments and discussion\nModerator: Zazie Schafer\, Director\, Bureau of Strategic Planning\, UNESCO\nAll participants \nClosing remarks\nKeith Holmes\, Research Coordinator\, UNITWIN/UNESCO Charis Programme\,\nFuture of Learning and Innovation Division\, UNESCO
