About this video

Prof Dawes compares different approaches to identify networks of interacting SDG targets that can support analysis of impacts and rates of change to choose the most effective SDGs implementation strategy. The key issues is to understand the structural and behaviour similarities between individual SDGs and design interactions promising faster progress on priority SDGs or more equal progress on all SDGs. He shows how perturbing a given system of predicted interactions and their impacts can help inform policy to enhance progress on implementing SDGs.
