“Wherever you are sitting, whatever sector, whatever industry, look at the potential trade-offs and synergies that are available to tap into with any action on the #SDGs.”
Astra Bonini:
“Certainly businesses and the private sector have a wealth of data and research, and making that accessible for different groups and different countries … would be really helpful [in] pushing things forward quickly.”

“Marketing or social media is hugely effective in getting people to make the choice to use something that has a lot of promise, or to put themselves behind promising solutions.”
Duncan Muriira:
“We require high level system thinking, but we also need to take into account, at the grassroot level.”
Duncan Muriira:
“I think it’s good to be direct and it’s good to also to evolve and look at the entire social-cultural system.”
Duncan Muriira:
“Social agency at that grassroot level [is important] to ensure that whatever innovations or plugins that external businesses and partners stakeholders can come into will derive the most benefit to the people who need it most.”

Jane Nelson:
“[It’s important to have an] increasing focus on responsibility, accountability, and transparency … particularly [in regards to] how new #technologies and #partnerships are deployed.”
Amanda Gardiner:
“Companies can do more to start integrating processes [to target #SDGs] now—not waiting for #regulation.”
