"It's not just about the data, or the science, it's about the conversations, the connections." How do we retain hope in the face of adversity? Calls for courage in our #NetZero Futures workshop at @MonashUni today 👏🌱✊

Here's a better image of the analytical framework...

Abstract will be added to the article soon. In the meantime, here it is:

Full article (open access) is available here:

Here is a sneak peek of the framework that we used in the paper to identify steering effects (i.e. discursive, institutional, relational, resource effects) and their depth of change (i.e. accommodative, reformative, and transformative changes).

Universities are increasingly engaging with the SDGs, but are the SDGs influencing university transformations? Very excited to share my second PhD paper where we analyse the steering effects of the SDGs in four universities, and if those effects have transformed universities.

Another great paper by @andreacuesta_c, published in @ESG_Journal. The paper presents four cases of the steering effects of the SDGs in universities and if these effects are transformative. https://t.co/OAsBnT0D8Z @MonashMSDI @UUCopernicus @FHBBiermann @ESG_SDG

Inspiring meeting today of the #SDGs research taskforce ⁦@ESG_SDG⁩ at #ESG2022 in Toronto - discussing new research programme on the SDGs

Many agree universities have a role to play in transformations to sustainable development and achieving the SDGs. But how? That depends on the problem and solutions framing. Great first PhD paper by Andreas Cuesta-Claros. PM if you like a copy. https://t.co/YlAw5Zcar7

New article on university models for #sustainabledevelopment By @andrea_cuesta7, Shirin Malekpour, Rob Raven, Tahl Kestin https://t.co/GAuUro6Tt1

Please join us in giving a big "Congratulations!" to Dr Shirin Malekpour. Shirin is the only Australian among 15 world-leading scientists appointed to advise the @UN on global sustainable development. Find out more here - https://t.co/IF0AwsFgdw #SDGs

A thread with Participatory design research resources available after #PDC2020 // Hilo con recursos sobre investigación en #diseñoparticipativo disponibles después de la conferencia #stillworktodo #pluriverse

Profes de diseño: usen #podcasts en sus clases!!! En tiempos de clases remotas: CREATIVIDAD AL PODER 💪🏽. La audiencia + activa tiene la edad de sus alumnos. Y los que los producimos queremos colaborar con uds para tener contenidos relacionados a su enseñanza. #enseñanzadediseño

Y caminamos juntas. Lo de hoy se trató de superar ideologías, estilos de vida, creencias religiosas y la lucha de cada. Fue encontrar nuestro punto en común: somos mujeres con ganas enormes de vivir y disfrutar sin miedo nuestra ciudad y nuestro país. #8M2020 #8mGdl

Our new director, Tony Capon, along with over 200 scientists, weigh in on the biggest threats to the well-being of future generations. #OurFutureOnEarth https://t.co/CE6fmi5umV Via @ConversationEDU

Closing this year's #sdnow, @AaltoUniversity's very own @idilgaziulusoy. Her talk makes us question how to refocus our practice towards deep leverage points, consider transitions as 3-fold design challenges (creative, technical, and political) and how design education is changing

In order to move into sustainment, we need to add temporal lenses to the question: What is good or bad design? @incognitosum's talk on Defamiliarising Certainty generated a few nervous giggles when considering futures and possible dystopias. #sdnow

If you’re not already paying attention to @BishtPupul - you need to. She just blew the minds of everyone at #SDNow4 with her talk on Decolonising Futures. 🤯

Insightful session with @relativecreativ at #sdnow4. We created design fictions based on clashes among different #futures, around climate change adaptation, human movement, economy, etc. Wonderful to see the roles of designers being challenged. #decolonisingfutures
