The second chapter, by Franco and Minnery, discusses anti-poverty measures
under SDG 1. Applying the sustainable livelihood framework (SLF), they explore
community capacity-building projects in resource regions. The research highlights
how the SLF shows interconnections between SDG 1 and SDG 11 in tackling multiple dimensions of poverty. The third chapter by Creegan et al. focuses on SDG 2
ending hunger and achieving food security through sustainable agriculture. The
chapter highlights the need for organic waste recycling programmes to apply locally
available resources, appropriate technologies, and localization measures based on
specific community needs assessment. The research also shows how the overlapping nature between SDG 2 and SDG 6 for sustainable waste management and
water conservation measures. The fourth chapter by Belen Federico studies health
and wellbeing measures under SDG 3. By focusing on effects of ultraviolet radiation on human DNA, the research reported in this chapter shows that DNA is seriously damaged by higher UV radiation caused by ozone layer depletion.
The fifth chapter by Franco and Derbyshire is linked to SDG 4 quality education
and connections with SDG 17 partnerships for the goals. The chapter pays nuanced
attention to the nature and importance of limiting and fostering factors in a collaborative governance scenario towards the achievement of SDG 4 quality education and in
the pursuit of education for sustainable development. Moving on, from there, the next
chapter by Franco, Salinas and Derbyshire shows how existing education practices at
higher education institutions of Latin America produce patriarchal systems detrimental for the sustainable leadership of women in male-dominated industries. The chapter makes reference to SDG 5 concerns on gender equality. Chapter 7 by Cano et al.
is on provision of clean water sanitation under SDG 6. It shows how the mining
industry is confronting water scarcity challenges through efficiency in technological
applications and through the implementation of different strategies such as the efficiency of resources, the optimization of process efficiency and circular economy.
Chapter 8 by Franco, Powell and Whereat explores how women can boost their
assets and capacities to cope with the effects of unsustainable energy consumption.
This capacity-building analysis primarily links up with SDG 7 affordable and clean
energy but also connects with SDG 5 gender equality and SDG 12 sustainable production systems. Similarly, Chap. 9 although primarily addresses SDG 8 concerns
regarding decent work and economic growth but also has great relevance for SDG
12 concerns regarding production systems. Ribeiro-Duthie’s research draws attention towards economic opportunities drawn by fair trade certified small producers.
Franco, Gonzalez and Buitrago in Chap. 10 show that community capacity-building
roadmap can enhance the ability of local communities to foster innovative industrial
practices for sustainable resource development and the achievement of SDG 9
Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure. The following chapter by Power investigates how superannuation-related social benefit schemes could further SDG 10
objectives of reducing financial inequalities.
Unlike other sustainability goal which is organized along specific sectoral indicators and targets, SDG 11 objectives of urban sustainability are spatially defined.
Chapter 12 by Vaidya and Chatterji focuses on SDG 11 as the analytical framework
to explore how the transformative force of urbanization represents opportunity and
challenge to meet several sustainability challenges, such as SDG-1, poverty reduc1 Towards Impact Sustainability
