WWW Together they have published several articles on the Multiple Evidence Based approach, which have received quite some attention worldwide. In particular, there is an urgent need for knowledge-based guidance on how to achieve all SDGs as a cohesive unit, particularly in light of the potential synergies and trade-offs that exist between the different goals.Image: Workplan for the Science-Based Pathways for Sustainability Initiative (Future Earth), with on the right envisioned roles for each entity of the Future Earth community: Global Research Projects (GRPs), Knowledge-Action Networks (KANs), National committees and Regional Centers and Committees.The national processes will use structured back-casting methodologies to develop integrated pathways to meet the four life-supporting SDGs, that is, the goals specifically related to biodiversity, oceans, land and freshwater.The outputs of the Initiative will vary by country and according to stakeholder needs but will include: (i) policy briefs and publications that describe the identified pathways and the political and societal decisions that will need to be taken to implement them; (ii) discussion papers on national and regional research priorities that identify priority transdisciplinary research needs to support knowledge-based decision making; and (iii) establishment of formal or informal networks of stakeholders and strengthened links to existing national and regional stakeholder platforms that are working on sustainability issues. Nick has been working in corporate sustainability for nearly six years, both in consultancy and in-house roles.
