National Dialogue Series: Canada’s Sustainable Future – Creating a Digital Action Plan | Town Hall #1: Digital transformation to scale public awareness for sustainability

The United Nations 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide a focus for global action on clean water, climate, good health, equity, and well-being. For Virtual Town Hall #1, we want to explore the challenges and opportunities of using digital innovation to bring attention and energize our communities around the SDGs and to connect all peoples in Canada with the natural world. Strengthening our personal connection to nature is a first step toward building awareness of what we could lose by not paying attention to our natural environment. With new digital tools to gather data about our physical and social environments, to share information and crowdsource solutions, what could a sustainable future in Canada look like?
