The director of institutional development of the Brazilian Business Council for Sustainable Development (CEBDS), Ana Carolina Avzaradel Szklo, participates, on November 28, in the last panel of the CTI-ODS 2030 cycle. With the theme Technology and Employment, the event takes place at the Museum of Tomorrow, in Rio de Janeiro, and is part of the program of Global Forum for Innovation and Technology in Sustainability (Fits).
The CTI-ODS 2030 panel series is an initiative of the Center for Strategic Studies and Management (CGEE) in partnership with the Ministry of Science, Technology, Innovation, and Communications (MCTIC). The event has already been held in three Brazilian capitals—Belém (PA), São Paulo (SP), and Brasília (DF)—and has now reached Rio de Janeiro. In addition to Ana Carolina, the panel also includes Glauco José Côrte, Executive Vice President for the Southern Region of the National Confederation of Industry (CNI); and Mariano Francisco Laplane, Director of the Institute of Economics at the State University of Campinas.
The CTI-ODS 2030 lectures travel to different capitals in Brazil to promote discussions on Brazil's goals within the scope of the 2030 Agenda, a list of 17 sustainable development goals established by the United Nations (UN).
Promotion on a global scale
On November 28th and 29th, the Museum of Tomorrow will host the first edition of Fits. The forum's objective is to foster innovation and technology, with a focus on production processes, competitiveness, public policies, and sustainable development. Brazilian and international experts were invited to discuss not only opportunities but also challenges related to these issues on a global scale.
Fits will contribute to the innovation chain by disseminating concepts, processes, trends, and technologies aligned with the culture of sustainability.
The event is promoted by the Global Center for Innovation and Technology in Sustainability (CITS) and the World Center for Sustainable Development (RIO+ Center) of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), among other supporting institutions.
