To some extent, there is resistance and lack of clarity too among corporates about sustainability.

As per a report of the World Economic Forum, 40% of the core skills of present workers are expected to change in the next five years. This would mean that everyone who is a part of the workforce and all those entering the workforce should possess an understanding of the ecology and environment. In the US, more than 45% of the top business schools have incorporated sustainability as a part of their curriculum. In India too, there is an urgent need to redesign academic programmes. The circular economy requires the minimal use of resources, ensuring they are not depleted. In building sustainable businesses and economies, digital technology would play a vital role. Technologies such as cloud computing, AI and automation have the potential to maximise sustainable development.

Hence, data and digital skills should be a part of the curriculum for every discipline.

Further, upskilling in digital technologies as per the latest trends would be extremely important to build sustainable livelihoods and sustainable ecosystems. More than ever before, there was a need for industry and academia to come together to work on this agenda. Businesses should provide insights from their failures and the challenges faced with their sustainability initiatives, so that academia can conduct research and find innovative approaches that would benefit organisations.
