Basedon the \u201cImpact- Transforming Business, Changing The World, United NationsGlobal Compact (DVV.

The document mentions that innovationplatforms are needed to nurture new relationships to drive co-creation ofsolutions between business and change makers. <\/o:p><\/p>\n

Under the SDG4, it is believed that by2030 all learners will be ensured to acquire knowledge and skills needed topromote sustainable development through education, including sustainablelifestyles, human rights, gender equality, promotion of a culture of peace andnon-violence, global citizenship, and appreciation of cultural diversity andculture\u2019s contribution to sustainable development. How can higher educationinstitutions help teachers, students, administrative staff and the community inpromoting sustainable development? <\/p>\n

The experience of Dr Shirley Yeung(Director, Centre for Corporate Sustainability and Innovations, Hang Seng Management College)and Ms Janet  Yick (Year 3 student ofJournalism and Communication Programme, Hang Seng Management College) cancrystallise the importance of co-creation process in producing an innovativeproduct to bring in a change of mindset – an article published by UN FlourishPrizes on FujiXerox software of \u201cEntrak\u201d with impacts on business results andsocietal benefits of bringing changes in the behaviour of people on energysaving.

In fact, this is a learning process of developingtransversal skills which are much needed for the present and the futurementioned by UNESCO \u2013 language skill, interpersonal skill, digitisation skill and culturalawareness.   During the UN Meeting in NewYork in June 2015,Ms Yick received a \u201cCertificate of Pioneer Student\u201d while Dr Yeung received a\u201cCertificate of Pioneer Professor\u201d from UN Flourish Prizes.<\/p>\n
