Those elusive visions
There’s talk of a meta crisis, of missed ambitions.
No matter whether the focus is on sustainable development/the SDGs, or on climate change, or on eroding social structures or increasing burn-out, or any of the other polycrises:
Only 15% of SDG targets were on track for 2030
Burnout caused an estimated $322 billion to $1 trillion in annual global losses
The estimated cost of the top 10 climate-related disasters was over $122 billion
Total global economic damage from climate change is projected to be even higher, including $145–$162 billion in insured losses
The missing element is not knowledge: almost everything we need to know is already ‘out there’. Adult education needs to go beyond knowledge transfer, to promote the competences needed to create conditions for transformative action.
