The Sustainable Development Goals in global perspective
Venue
As part of the mission to link academic knowledge with the real world, the SDGs in global perspective conference aims to address a constellation of normative and empirical questions concerning governance, financing, implementation, evaluation and achievement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
At the heart of this conference, there is the belief that, to capture the complexity of the SDGs, we need to bridge different academic disciplines, vernacular knowledge and local expertise. In this intellectual milieu, A-id and Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna invite practitioners and scholars from development studies, economics, public policy, law, political science, political theory, social policy, and sociology to submit abstracts and articles examining different aspects of the SDGs including but not limited to:
Making sustainable development operational: the governance of the SDGs
Economic, social and environmental pathways to sustainability
Legal and normative implications of SDGs
Indicators and data availability
Financing the SDGs
The relevance of the Belt and Road Initiative for the 2030 Agenda
