Putting Disability Inclusion at the heart of Global Transformation
- Mobilizing a movement towards the IDGs -
This Gathering will explore how structural initiatives for inclusion are interlinked with many other dimensions of inner development and how organisations can get serious with their efforts for a more sustainable world for all. This Gathering will take its starting point in the dimension of Collaborating and the skills of developing an Inclusive Mindset and Intercultural Competence.
Caroline Casey is the businesswoman and activist behind The Valuable 500, the world’s largest CEO collective and business move for disability inclusion. Caroline launched the movement at the World Economic Forum’s Davos Summit in 2019 and since then has signed up 500 multinational organisations with a combined revenue of over $8 trillion, employing 20 million people worldwide to radically transform the business system. Committed to driving lasting change through business for the 1.3 billion people in the world living with a disability, over the past two decades she has set up several organisations and initiatives centred on disability business inclusion.
By showcasing examples from the large scale collaboration efforts of the Valuable 500, she will show how that work has come to impact individuals, leaders and organizations aiming to lead the change.
The Gathering will start 15.30 CET in Zoom. The official end is at 17, and after that it is possible to stay on for afterglow.
About the IDGs
In 2015, the UN Sustainable Development Goals provided us with a comprehensive plan for a sustainable world by 2030.However, progress is not happening fast enough.
There is an urgent need to increase our collective abilities to face and effectively work with complex challenges. This is why we are co-creating the Inner Development Goals (IDGs) - a blueprint of the capabilities, qualities and skills that are needed to achieve the 17 SDGs.
The Inner Development Goals is a non-profit, open-source organization to help us develop the collective inner skills and qualities needed to overcome our global challenges and move towards a thriving world.
