Innovation for Sustainable Development Initiative

The Innovation for Sustainable Development Initiative (#EWCinnovation) will advance the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and has been officially recognized by the United Nations as an SDG Acceleration Action (#SDGAction37761). Through cooperative capacity building, research, and dialogue, the partners under this initiative jointly offer a digital credential, locally tailored professional development, a non-residential fellowship in innovation, a webinar series about innovation, and accelerate progress on the SDGs by hosting innovation challenges. The flagship fellowship under this initiative known as the #EWCInnovationFellows, supports non-resident local partners who co-design and co-deliver local programs and events across communities in Asia and the Americas accelerating progress towards the SDGs from within their organization, company or University. This channel features stories about these local programs and interviews with these partners.
