Six Business Sectors Serving the 2030 Agenda

From idea to impact: GSDF’s six sectors form a closed loop of "advocacy — research — dialogue — projects — communication — talent", each aligned with United Nations frameworks.

Our Work

A Closed-Loop System of Global Action

Every sector connects to the work of relevant United Nations bodies, so that awareness raising leads to research, research to dialogue, dialogue to projects, and projects to replicable results and new talent.

Sector 1 · Advocacy & Global Public Communication

Multilingual SDG films, annual initiatives and global messages from former heads of state, UN officials and Nobel laureates.
Joint declarations and initiatives with thousands of NGOs at moments such as the UN General Assembly and climate conferences.
Touring public exhibitions, online lectures and campus SDG classes for youth and the general public.
Long-term content partnerships with global media, sharing practices such as ecological civilization and rural revitalization.
Case collections and practical handbooks published in multiple languages including Chinese, English, French, Spanish and Arabic.

Sector 2 · Resources & International Cooperation Platforms

A standing global talent network of former presidents and prime ministers, former UN officials, Nobel laureates and sustainability executives.
Tiered platforms for political dialogue, green low-carbon business cooperation and university–think-tank exchange.
