Abstract

Uwe Schulte discusses the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) with Dr. Márcia Balisciano, Global Head of Corporate Responsibility at RELX. Schulte acknowledges the on-going COVID-19 crisis and emphasizes the importance of achieving the UN SDGs to mitigate future pandemics. Balisciano shares her personal journey in sustainability, influenced by her mother and her work with RELX and the Benjamin Franklin House in London. The conversation transitions to the evolution from the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) to the broader and more inclusive SDGs, highlighting their impact on both global North and South. Balisciano elaborates on how businesses, including RELX, can contribute to these goals, particularly through research and collaboration. They discuss the interconnectedness of the goals, using examples like biodiversity loss and health, illustrating how achieving these goals can address global challenges. The podcast underscores the necessity of a collective effort from nations and businesses to realize the SDGs and create a sustainable future.
