Organized by: Future EarthCanada has less than 10 years to deliver on its commitments for the UN Sustainable Development Goals (
Canadian Indicator Framework for the SDGs), and to meet national climate and biodiversity targets such as protecting 30% of land by 2030 and hitting net-zero emissions by 2050. To catalyze action and achieve these ambitions, we must foster cross-sectoral and interdisciplinary collaborations that merge digital innovations with sustainability science and increase collective awareness at this interface. Canada is well-positioned to become a “first mover” on digital innovations for the SDGs and for scaling-up nature-based solutions as pathways to decarbonization.
To explore this topic further, Future Earth and Sustainability in the Digital Age will be hosting a half-day symposium at the 13th Canadian Science Policy Conference. This symposium will bring together panelists with diverse expertise, covering policy analysis, climatology, digital innovation, sustainable development, private sector partnerships, Indigenous driven transformative solutions, education and youth development.
Panel part 1: National Dialogue Series (12PM - 1:30PM EST)
Panel part 2: Landscape Analysis (2PM - 4PM EST)
