Future Earth and the Stockholm Resilience Centre are launching a call for Sustainable Development Goal Labs (SDG Labs) in advance of the Resilience 2017 conference and International Conference on Sustainability Science, which will be held back to back in Stockholm 21-26 August. We are looking for brilliant ideas with potential to make major breakthroughs on the SDGs. The outcomes of the SDG Labs will be presented on 24 August during the joint “Ideas and Innovation” policy day for policymakers, business, researchers, and media. The SDG Labs are multi-stakeholder and transdisciplinary processes to catalyse transformation. We want to encourage innovative ways to overcome lock-ins and plant seeds of change. We will prioritize labs that can feed into UN’s High Level Political Forum (HLPF) in 2018, focusing on the goals below (but we are open to other ideas as well):
