Dear Michel,
We've made it to December, the 36th month of the longest year in history! ;-) We at r3.0 have been busy "making hay," as they say. As you'll see in this newsletter, we're ending the year with a bang (and we've still got one more major announcement pending, in our last newsletter of the year, coming in a couple of weeks.)
The big news now is the kickoff of the UNRISD / r3.0 Sustainable Development Performance Indicators Piloting Project. With the Kickoff Meeting mid-month and the Training early in the new year, now is the time to claim one of the last remaining seats in this pioneering project!
Likewise, the time is now to join the Educational Transformation Blueprint Working Group, which has grown to over 20 members.
Finally, we're reconstituting our Steering Board, and are glad to announce two new additions, with more coming in future newsletters. We also have a slew of new Advocation Partners joining our ever-expanding network!
The Bullets:
- UNRISD Indicators Pilot Project Kickoff
- Last Call to Join Educational Transformation Blueprint Working Group
- New r3.0 Steering Board Members
- New Advocation Partners
Stay safe as you enjoy this holiday season!

r3.0 is partnering with the United Nations Research Institute for Social Development (UNRISD) to manage the project for piloting a new set of Sustainable Development Performance Indicators (see here for more information). The one-hour Kickoff Meeting is scheduled for December 16, teeing up the Training for four 1/2 days on January 7/8/13/14.
It's not too late to join! If you'd like to fill one of the last open seats, please reach out to Bill and/or Ralph.

With over 20 members already, the Educational Transformation Blueprint Working Group is filling up, so this is our last call for members.
To throw your name in the hat, please reach out to Bill and/or Ralph with an expression of interest that includes your credentials and experience.
For background on the project, see the Keynote by Lead Author Anneloes Smitsman from the r3.0 Conference, and the Breakout Session where Co-Author Joe Brewer joins Anneloes.

Reward Value is a non-profit research initiative that aims to bridge the gap between purpose, performance and pay. We do this by developing new remuneration practices to better align executive compensation to long-term sustainable value creation for all stakeholders. We work together with business schools, Institutional investors, social and environmental stakeholders as well as large companies.

Richard Howitt is a renowned thought-leader, advocate and change-maker on issues of corporate responsibility and sustainability, business and human rights. He brings skills and knowledge from major international leadership positions in each of government, business and civil society. Richard was architect of the European Union’s Non-Financial Reporting Directive, led the global project towards alignment of sustainability reporting frameworks and is a longstanding champion of r3.0’s commitment to transformative thinking, regenerative economics and multi-capitalism.
“I have always found the writing, events and network led by r3.0 to represent the cutting-edge of thinking globally about sustainable business practices and the link between change in the business and at the level of the system. It is an honour to join the community as an Advocation Partner, and to support translation of the highly innovative thinking in r3.0’s Blueprints into practical action now. I want to make these ideas themselves thrive!”
