Accelerating Deliberation Workshop : Accelerating Social Impact Through Collective Action Between Industry And Start-Ups
Technological change in the digital era is transformational, but it does not always advance sustainable development. Today, technological change is driven largely by private sector and therefore it has become the core responsibility of social scientists, policymakers, governments and legislators to guide and support private sectors and keep these changes up. The better understanding and implementation of new technologies will help the people as well as the government in ensuring sustainable development of the nation. Not only in India but also across the world private sector including startups are contributing a lot to achieve sustainable development Goals (SDGs).
Deliberation Workshop: Accelerating Social Impact Solutions Through Collective Action Between Industry And Start-Ups
India’s private sector, including start-ups, are well positioned to support the centre and
state governments in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). There have been
several strategic developments related to the UN system recently. The United Nations
Secretary General (UNSG) has entrusted the Local Networks with a greater responsibility to
increase SDGs impact and UN business partnerships at the country-level.
A key focus area that has been added to the UNGC mandate is inclusion and promotion of
innovators in respective countries. The Local Networks are being encouraged to play a
significant role in both guiding and supporting start-ups as responsible business locally in
collaboration with Government, the UN, and other stakeholders.
