SDGs

Inclusive and workplace acceptance of refugees
Partnering for refugee employment

When considering their talent pipelines, few companies think outside-of-the-box. Most refugees flourish in the workplace, and so do the businesses that hire them.

SDG 16
Institutional investors demand a more sustainable capitalism

Honey gathering is a solitary job in Indigenous communities. The collector then shares the honey with their community but refrains from joining in the honey feast themself. The idea is that the gathering is not about their gratification, it’s about their contribution to the collective.  

SDG15 Bushfires
Optimisation model as a guide to burning forests to save forests

Setting fire to parts of a forest to save it might seem counterintuitive to urban communities. There is no equivalent of torching a few streets to protect a suburb. However, amongst First Nations people in Australia, hazard reduction burning is a well-established practice.

Over the next 50 years people living in low-income nations will undertake one of this century’s defining megatrends: rapid urbanisation.

SDG9 - Cybersecurity
Ending the wild west of data collection

Cybercrime attacks both individual and the national well-being. Such violations are hugely psychologically distressing and can lead to strong feelings of unease and a lack of trust in institutions.
