Goals to Change Policy or Society in Relation to Sustainability

/in /by

Common Assessment: Please focus on the following points.

  1. The essay questions require you to integrate information taken from several different (referenced) sources, to organize that information and to summarize the information, with conclusions that may be new to you.
  2. Begin with a thesis statement, (or a claim) that you will explain and justify in your essay.  Support your ideas with a rationale and evidence (not just, “I think”), logically organized throughout the essay. Your ideas and the support should be clear to the reader.
  3. Select relevant material to illustrate your points and provide specific references. Your essaymust make substantive reference to at least three resources. Do not cite, quote or reference from Wikipedia or general non-verifiable sources.  References should follow the APA format.
  4. Your essay should reflect proper grammar and syntax.

The economist Jeffrey Sachs argues that specific and achievable goals help to develop more effective policy reforms. As an example, he quotes President John F. Kennedy who gave the commencement address at American University in 1963. In that speech, Kennedy said: “By defining our goal more clearly, by making it seem more manageable and less remote, we can help all people to see it, to draw hope from it and to move irresistibly towards it.” Kennedy meant the Limited Nuclear Test Ban Treaty needed to have specific and achievable goals to be effective, and Sachs meant that the clarity of the Millennium Development Goals has helped achieve policy reform. How would you use the same idea of specific and achievable goals to think about changes in policy or society in relation to sustainability?
 
(i)     Justify the relevance of Kennedy’s statement with respect to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with specific references to the role of governments and private corporations. DO NOT WRITE MORE THAN 2 SENTENCES ABOUT JFK’S STATEMENT.
 
(ii)      Identify three of the SDGs that you consider important (as they relate to either your local community or to your core values). With the three selected SDGs, evaluate the interdependence of those goals while considering how the funding needs and action plans for the goals are interconnected.
YOU MUST DISCUSS THE PLANS OR GOALS OF AT LEAST: 1 GOVERNMENT, 1 BUSINESS, AND 1 NGO.
Parameters:  The essay will be 3-4 pages, double spaced in font 11 with an additional page for references.
