  • Investing to Achieve Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure
    Cornerstone UN SDG Series: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure Investing to Align with SDG 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure Investment in infrastructure and innovation are crucial drivers of economic growth and development, and are key to finding lasting solutions to both economic and environmental challenges. Promoting sustainable industries and investing in scientific research and innovation are all important ways to facilitate sustainable development. More than 4 billion people still do not have access to the Internet, and 90% are from the developing world. Bridging this digital divide is crucial to ensuring equal access to information and knowledge, as well as fostering innovation and entrepreneurship.1 SDG 9 is further refined by targets that can be more easily translated into actions. These targets highlight the interconnected nature of the goals. For example, strategies to support inclusive industrialization and innovation also promote progress toward SDG 5 (Gender Equality) and SDG 8 (Decent Work & Economic Growth). Below are a series of synergies What are the UN SDGs? that can come from providing access to products, services and systems that work to drive The UN Sustainable Development Goals Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure. (SDGs) are a collection of 17 global goals set by the UN General Assembly in 2015. Fair Treatment and Equal Opportunity The SDGs are a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, Recent research points to a strong connection between openness to different cultures now and into the future. The SDGs are and ideas, and the ability of a place to adapt to economic changes and grow.2,3 Currently, part of Resolution 70/1 of the UNGA titled however, not all are equally able to innovate.

  • An Overview of the Forest Service's New Wood Utilization Center ______Secretary Glickman Expressed Theodore L
    An Overview of the Forest Service's New Wood Utilization Center ___________________________________________________________________________ Secretary Glickman expressed Theodore L. Laufenberg his support for efforts to improve Charles G. Shaw III Southeast Alaska's economy in a press USDA--Forest Service release dated January 17, 1999 from the Pacific Northwest Research Station United States Department of Agriculture. _____________________________________ He said, "Federal agency cooperation will unify and enhance the opportunities for economic assistance to workers, families, businesses, and communities affected by the changing timber industry in southeastern Alaska." He went on to discuss the establishment by the Forest Service of the Wood Utilization Center in Sitka. In the Fiscal Year (FY) 1999 budget appropriation for Interior and related agencies, the USDA Forest Service (FS) was directed to establish and commence operating a harvesting and wood utilization laboratory in Sitka, Alaska with no less than five, full-time employees. Even though the enabling legislation was in an appropriations bill, no funds were provided to support the program. The Forest Service is implementing the mandate in FY 1999 with FY 1998 carry-over funds, but does not have funding for the laboratory specifically identified in the FY 2000 Budget being considered by Congress. Ted Laufenberg was detailed to Sitka for one year as acting team leader for the Wood Utilization Center (WUC). Over the past 19 years as a research engineer, project leader, and, most recently, program manager at the Forest Products Laboratory (FPL) in Madison, Wisconsin, Ted has worked with a wide array of wood products; collaborated with a host of academic, government, and commercial interests; and advanced numerous science-policy initiatives on topics such as free trade, recycling, and environmentally-preferable purchasing.

Widayat, Martunis, Murna Muzaifa, Rizka Try Gustina Department of Agricultural Product Technology, Faculty of Agriculture, Syiah Kuala University, Jl. Tgk. H. Krueng Kalee 3, Banda Aceh, Aceh. Indonesia *Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT - Indonesia has been known as the third largest cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) producer in the world. However, most of Indonesian cocoa is considered as low in quality due to unfermented bean. Bean fermentation has been introduced to smallholder farmers in Aceh, but the quality of bean produced is not consistent. Among factors determining a succesfull fermentation is involvment of major microorganisms, including yeast which is grown naturally around cocoa beans in the first 24 hours of fermentation. Therefore, this study is aimed to isolate and identify the type of yeasts involved in the cocoa fermentation process. Then, the yeast is being used as starter in cocoa fermentation to improve the bean quality. Improving cocoa quality is very important to improve farmer competitiveness, which in turn will enhance cocoa production sustainability. Samples of microorganisms taken from the best cocoa mass fermentation were isolated to obtain pure yeast culture. The culture was identified conventionally by observing (testing) its morphological and biochemical properties. The results showed that the six isolates predominantly grown fall into four different yeasts genus.

  • Resource Indicators for Sustainable Industries and Sustainable Industrial Development (RISI)
    Resource Indicators for Sustainable Industries and Sustainable Industrial Development (RISI) Project Duration Nov 2011 - Jan 2012 Fostering sustainable industries and industrial development requires the use of effective indicators. Though a multitude of indicators exist, their applicability to sustainable industries remains largely unaddressed to date. In this project, Ecologic Institute reviewed scientific knowledge in order to evaluate existing indicators and derive recommendations concerning their usability and potential need for further indicator development. Ecologic Institute published a shorter version of the project results as a policy brief. The policy brief is available for download. Increasing resource efficiency is one of the core themes of sustainable development, aiming to facilitate the improvement of socio-economic well-being while reducing resource use and its associated environmental impacts. Though in this context sustainable industries and sustainable industrial development must play a crucial role globally, both in alleviating poverty and in achieving development without adverse environmental impacts, they are still only marginally addressed. This is reflected in the discussions towards supplementing and integrating the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), to be defined and agreed on in the course of the Rio+20 process. Both MDGs and SDGs appear to lack specific targets for industries and industrial development. While the MDGs outline concrete, partly quantifiable objectives to drastically reduce extreme poverty by 2015, they do not provide guidance or indicators on improving resource efficiency and in particular do not address the industrial sector. Though the SDGs proposed by the Governments of Colombia and Guatemala [pdf, 455 kB, English] include resources relevant to industries and industrial development (in particular water and energy), they make no reference to industries or industrial development.

  • The Experiences of New Zealand Floriculture Export Producers in the Changing International Market: What Can Be Done to Strengthen the Sector’S Capabilities?
    The Experiences of New Zealand Floriculture Export Producers in the Changing International Market: What Can Be Done to Strengthen the Sector’s Capabilities? Indra Ratnayake MPhil 2016 The Experiences of New Zealand Floriculture Export Producers in the Changing International Market: What can be done to Strengthen the Sector’s Capabilities? Indra Ratnayake A thesis submitted to Auckland University of Technology in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy Faculty of Culture and Society 2016 i ii Abstract This research focused on the New Zealand floriculture industry, an important foreign exchange earner and employment provider that has silently contributed New Zealand’s national and regional economies over the past four decades. Internationally the global floriculture industry and market is growing, providing opportunities for many. At the same time, international industry dynamics are constantly changing, bringing in challenges for industry stakeholders worldwide. This has made it important to evaluate the New Zealand floriculture industry’s ability to face future challenges. In view of that importance, this research was designed to develop a knowledge base on New Zealand floriculture industry by investigating the floriculture producers’ industry and export experiences in the changing international environment. A mixed method approach was applied in this research to bring together evidence from multiple sources, including documents, industry reports, production and trade statistics, participant interviews, and author self-reflection. The analysis was designed to identify the important developments in the international settings that impacted the New Zealand export floriculture industry, and to draw lessons from the New Zealand grower experiences in the dynamic and changing international marketplace.

  • Horticulture, and Wood and Furniture Industries in Tanzania
    Final report Horticulture, and wood and furniture industries in Tanzania Performance, challenges and potential policy approaches Francesca Guadagno Samuel Wangwe Michele Delera André Bueno Rezende de Castro November 2019 When citing this paper, please use the title and the following reference number: F-40433-TZA-1 Horticulture, and wood and furniture industries in Tanzania: Performance, challenges and potential policy approaches Francesca Guadagno, Independent consultant Samuel Wangwe, REPOA Michele Delera, UNU-MERIT André Bueno Rezende de Castro, IGC Abstract This paper analyses two resource-based manufacturing industries in Tanzania: processing of horticultural goods and wood products and furniture. In several developing countries resource-based industrialization has worked as an engine of structural transformation. In Tanzania, these industries are still too small and inefficient. While industrial policy could help address the challenges that firms face in these industries, the country is currently lacking a concrete and detailed industrial strategy for these industries. In this regard, the cases of palm oil in Malaysia and wooden furniture in Vietnam teach important lessons. First, industrial targeting requires bundles of industrial policy instruments that reinforce each other. Second, science, technology, and innovation must be key priorities, even for industries that are not commonly considered “high-tech.” Keywords: resource-based industrialization; agro-processing; wood and furniture; structural transformation; industrial policy

  • Applying Circular Economy Principles to Sustainable Tourism Development
    Applying circular economy principles to sustainable tourism development Savina Nedyalkova Tourism expert, Bulgaria Abstract Tourism is not only an economic activity, as tourist destinations offer so much more than just products and services - it is the whole system of nature, cultures, and history that makes a destination different and competitive. Tourism is a means for local prosperity, and seen through the lenses of the sustainable development, it has to respect both local people and the traveller, cultural heritage and the environment (UNESCO, 2006). In order to reach the targets of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and make a significant shift towards truly sustainable tourism, we should recover value in resources again. Creating a further value from existing products as long as possible and turning them into resources lies at the core of the so-called circular economy. This concept involves innovation throughout the value chain, rather than relying on solutions at the end of the life of the product (COM 2014/398). Such an innovative approach, which incorporates the principles of the circular economy - reuse, reduce, recycle - should be applied to tourism as well. It means “reuse” instead of build new, “reduce” costs at the critical points - environmental and financial, and “recycle” more effectively. An important component in the future transition of sustainable tourism is awareness rising. Educating not only businesses but also customers is crucial, because that is the weakest point in the value chain. Tourist consumption follows a certain pattern that should be changed by the means of marketing instruments, emphasizing on the values, not on the consumption itself.
