Activities

Main EU Legislative Proposals: At the international level, ASviS is: - an Associated Partner of the European Sustainable Development Network (ESDN), the informal network of institutional entities, associations and experts that have been working on sustainable development policies and strategies since 2003; - a member of SDG Watch Europe, an EU-level, cross-sectoral CSO alliance of NGOs focusing on development, environment, social, human rights and other sectors; - part of the United Nations Partnerships for SDGs platform, which provides global engagement for multi-stakeholder partnerships and voluntary commitments from all stakeholders devoted to support the implementation of the SDGs; - a member of Europe Ambition 2030, a civil society coalition launched by ASviS and other international organizations with the aim of revising EU governance and policies in the light of the SDGs so as to turn them into the basis for all EU actions. At national level, ASviS: is part of Global Compact Network Italia and Sustainable Development Solutions Network Italia. The former is a Foundation whose mission is to apply the UN’s Global Compact to the Italian context, whereas the latter is part of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network coordinated by J. Sachs and responds to the UN’s call for cooperation in promoting sustainable development and the 2030 Agenda in Italy. Closely collaborates with the Italian network of universities for sustainable development (Rete delle università per lo sviluppo sostenibile, Rus), a network established by the Conference of Italian University Rectors. The Rus works to spread best practices of sustainability, both within and beyond Universities, by acting as a forum to share competencies and experiences so as to increase the positive environmental, social and economic impacts of actions put in place by universities. The network currently comprises over 70 Italian universities.
Communication Activities: ASviS organizes and promotes the Sustainable Development Festival, that saw events on the 2030 Agenda spread across all national territory. In the field of sustainable development education, the Alliance designed an e-learning course on the 2030 Agenda for schools and teachers, organized and initiated the ASviS-Miur contest for schools on the SDGs, and contributed to the launch of three university Master’s degrees. ASviS developed statistical tools to monitor Italy’s pace of implementation of the SDGs and an analytical model to evaluate the impact of various policies. Results can be read by accessing the Alliance’s new database.

Organisation Members: https://asvis.it/partenariati/ Europe Ambition 2030 è una coalizione della società civile, nata nel marzo 2017 dalla Conferenza “Europe Ambition 2030. Europa leader mondiale dello sviluppo sostenibile: un’opportunità unica per costruire un’Unione europea più forte” su iniziativa dell’ASviS e di altre organizzazioni internazionali, che punta a un ripensamento della governance e delle politiche dell’Ue, ponendo il raggiungimento degli SDGs alla base dell’azione dell’Unione. Per stimolare la riflessione su questi temi, gli organizzatori della conferenza, tra cui ASviS, e altre 250 organizzazioni della società civile europea hanno firmato il documento “Transforming Our Europe” per chiedere un'Europa più democratica, giusta e sostenibile, proponendo un “sesto scenario” rispetto ai cinque proposti nel White Paper della Commissione europea (che fornisce visioni alternative di quello che potrebbe essere lo stato dell'Unione nel 2025), considerati insoddisfacenti da gran parte dei commentatori. A maggio 2020 la coalizione ha diffuso un documento incentrato sui principi per una ripartenza dell'Europa in chiave sostenibile. L’ASviS è Associated Member dell’Esdn, la più grande rete di soggetti istituzionali, associazioni ed esperti che, dal 2003, si occupano di politiche e strategie di sviluppo sostenibile. Esdn supporta la realizzazione della Settimana europea per lo sviluppo sostenibile (European sustainable development week - Esdw) con migliaia di iniziative nei Paesi europei grazie all’impegno di un’ampia varietà di stakeholder, testimoniando la crescente attenzione a queste tematiche tra i cittadini e la società civile. Anche l’Italia ha partecipato attivamente alla Esdw attraverso la realizzazione del Festival dello Sviluppo Sostenibile nello stesso periodo. L’ASviS fa parte della “Partnership for SDGs”, una rete multistakeholder, guidata dalla Sustainable development division delle Nazioni unite, per il raggiungimento degli SDGs. La rete consente, attraverso una piattaforma online, di condividere conoscenze e competenze tra partnership multi-stakeholder relative ai 17 Obiettivi. La piattaforma “Partnership for SDGs” è aperta a tutte le parti interessate, compresi gli Stati membri, la società civile, le autorità locali, il settore privato, la comunità scientifica e tecnologica, il mondo accademico e altri, per registrare un impegno volontario o un partenariato multi-stakeholder volto a guidare l'attuazione dell'Agenda 2030. L’ASviS è l’unico membro italiano di SDG Watch Europe, l'alleanza europea di organizzazioni della società civile nata per monitorare l'implementazione dell'Agenda 2030 per lo sviluppo sostenibile nel vecchio continente. In occasione dell’avvio della consultazione sul futuro dell’Europa aperta dalla Commissione Ue, l’organizzazione SDG Watch Europe ha presentato un documento nel quale si delinea una visione di Europa in cui “la sostenibilità sia saldamente collocata al centro dei progetti europei”. SDG Watch Europe invita i cittadini a supportare l’iniziativa e a favorire l’integrazione di indicatori di sviluppo sostenibile nei meccanismi di governance dell’Unione e il monitoraggio dei progressi delle politiche verso il raggiungimento dei 17 SDGs.
