Senior leaders from government, business, civil society and academia in the Southeast Asia/Australia region gathered in Kuala Lumpur on 7-8 November for a 2-day workshop to discuss the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their implications for the region. The regional workshop was hosted by the SDSN Malaysian Chapter and the SDSN Regional Centre for Australia/Pacific.

A new workshop report examines what a sustainable Australia might look like, what sustainable development goals it should aim for, and how Australia could influence the UN process to develop Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that would apply to all countries post 2015.

Sir Bob, one of the world’s leading experts on global environmental issues, presented this talk in Melbourne on 22 May 2013. The video is now available.

The SDSN Regional Center for Australia/Pacific, hosted by Monash University, held its first major event on May 13 and 14 with a workshop on “What Sustainable Development Goals mean for Australia”. The workshop brought together over 90 leaders from business, government, civil society, and academia to develop a vision for what a sustainable Australia looks.
