This side event at the 2025 UN ECOSOC Partnership Forum focused on Public-Private Partnerships that are needed to curate and use SDG knowledge as a Global Public Good.
On the supply of knowledge, we discussed the outcome document of the 3rd World OER Congress, the Dubai Declaration on Open Educational Resources (OER) on digital public goods and emerging technologies for equitable and inclusive access to knowledge.
On the use of knowledge, we discussed the UNIDO, UNITAR and SDSN’s Capabilities for the Future Hub, a space for government agencies, private sector and educational and training institutions to create the highest joint returns to prosperity, society and environment for those who participate in inclusive and sustainable Global Value Chains.
We also looked at examples related to Insurance and the SDGs, the BuildSkills Academy and degree programs that can contribute to an inclusive and sustainable knowledge commons.
