This report, in the form of an Action Plan, offers a vision on three systemic shifts needed to achieve this goal together with a set of 9 Impact Initiatives to spark immediate collective action and multi-stakeholder collaboration.
- Enable Alignment: Create the enabling conditions to align the vision, values and objectives of the digital age with sustainable development;
- Mitigate Negative Impacts: A commitment to "sustainable digitalisation" that mitigates the negative environmental and social impacts of digital technologies;
- Accelerate Innovation: Advancing investments in "digitalisation for sustainability" to accelerate the development and deployment of sustainability-driven digital innovation.
Within each shift, this Action Plan identifies six strategic priorities that must be addressed during the 2022-2025 timeline together with 9 global Impact Initiatives to catalyse systemic transformations. The Coalition for Digital Environmental Sustainability (CODES) has published this Action Plan on the 50th anniversary of the Stockholm Conference on the Human Environment and will contribute the implementation of this vision in the years ahead.
