The Great Balancing ActThe balancing act is how the two fundamental elements of sustainable development and how these must be considered together; that is planetary health and social justice. Together these two elements describe a sustainable vision that respects both planetary boundaries/environmental limits and a social foundation, which will ensure a safe and just operating space for our existence and defines new pathways for inclusive growth and prosperity.

The Many Issues of Alignment• Vertical
– International to National to Regional to Local– Implementability - No global economy as such, patchwork of regional
economies• Horizontal
– Bio-centric vs. people-centric. Are these contradictory approaches? – Adopt a rights-based approach
• Joining the dots– Creating coherence performance measurement and management
system– Thereby identifying gaps and improve our understanding
• Principles, Values and Behaviours– Information is the basis of education, which, in turn, changes value
and behaviours. Information is empowering– Sustainable development is a cause for fairness
