Created at the halfway point of Agenda 2030, the SDG Transformation Center aims to operationalize the SDGs as an investment and action agenda through the Six Transformations framework.

We work with UN agencies, governments, investors and advisory firms to provide tools and a platform for promoting evidence-based action for the SDGs. The Center leverages data and insights but also the convening power of the largest network of researchers and scientists mobilized for the SDGs. Our flagship studies, analyses, and datasets - including the SDG Index - are globally-recognized and credible resources for the policy and investment communities.

Strategic Advisor, UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network Last week, I had the opportunity to attend The Knowledge Summit 2025, organized by the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation (#MBRF) and UNDP.

The event clearly showed the UAI’s strong commitment to advancing knowledge as a force for innovation, education, and building sustainable communities. No wonder that the UAI is among the few countries to have achieved SDG 4, according to the SDSN’s Sustainable Development Report 2025. It was also fascinating to observe the rapid pace of AI integration in shaping the national education system, the future of learning and skills - things are moving fast! A key highlight was the launch of the UNDP’s Global Knowledge Index 2025, which measures and compares the knowledge systems of 195 countries across six dimensions - from education and research to ICT, economy,... And it was great to see that the SDSN Index on countries' support for UN-based multilateralism is integrated under the governance dimension.

At the ESSEC Institute for Geopolitics & Business, three signals stand out: 1️⃣ The collapse of the old ODA model is accelerating; the future lies in systemic financial reform. 2️⃣ Climate justice is becoming the new political baseline, with Loss & Damage emerging as a decisive test of credibility. 3️⃣ Global levies are shifting from utopia to policy option, driven by competition, fragmentation, and the search for scalable revenue.
