Global Risks Forum 2025
Global Goals

Responsible Consumption and Production

Our planet has provided us with an abundance of natural resources. But we have not utilized them responsibly and currently consume far beyond what our planet can provide. We must learn how to use and produce in sustainable ways that will reverse the harm we have inflicted on the planet.

Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns

The global pandemic has highlighted failings and weaknesses in how current systems handle risks and issues: traditional business and governance models fail us. Due to this failure, socioeconomic traumas contribute to civil wars, terrorism, climate change, and regional instability. We need to understand risks and study their impacts at individual, local and global levels to avoid catastrophic results arising from outdated and difunctional systems. Quadruple Helix (QH) is an n invitation to explore, discuss and imagine new systems, technologies and mechanisms capable of building resilience, accelerating innovation and reducing risks to human civilization. QH helps build resilience through integrated processes in which different groups of actors with pluralistic methods and perspectives contribute to risk mitigation and impact assessments. Our network mediates between services, solutions, and their uptake within specific organizations, communities or cultural contexts for effective and optimal ESG results. We work with scientists, political leaders, and grassroots activists to field-test our programs and projects in diverse environments. Our working groups foster international security, prosperity, and justice by building tools, prototyping new technologies, creating datasets, working with local leaders, and training government officials.

Shaping science with and for society, dealing with the risk challenges of our planet.

Transformative change requires resilient networks and democratic stewardship that unite a variety of actors and encourage a plurality of methods, perspectives, and skills, allowing for an agile, engaged, and inclusive environment
