The first priority of CODES is to co-develop a flagship report on "A Digital Planet for Sustainability". A dedicated virtual roundtable on the draft report was held on 7 May from 15:00-17:30 CET on Sparkblue and Zoom.
?If you missed the live event, catch up by watching the recording:
The report will be used as a core input to the planned CODES conference "Accelerating A Digital Planet for Sustainability" in late June.
The report is a synthesis of the digital transformation and environmental sustainability nexus. It seeks to lay the basis for international dialogue on how these two mega trends connect, the risks and opportunities they represent, and a set of short-term priorities for public and private sector collaboration.
The intention is to collectively influence how public and private sector funding is allocated to build a digital planet for sustainability in terms of the data, standards, safeguards, infrastructure, public-private partnerships and digital public goods. In particular, it will identify the kind of incentives and enabling policies that are needed to unlock commercial and public investment in thriving, inclusive and nature positive economies.
?The roundtable event will be followed by a 2 week open virtual consultation.

Indeed we have been struggling with this. Sparkblue doesn’t yet have a calendar feature but it is in the development pipeline. Not sure I want to use google but would be interested in your advice on how to solve this in the short term. I could attach .ics files to each newsletter for example ?
Fair enough David Jensen. Yes, an ICS file is one way. That may be the easiest for now.
