Local mission approach as a challenge based multi-level building block for sustainable development
Achieving sustainability is crucial, requiring us to rethink our actions, consumption patterns, and policy development approach. Public policy must anticipate and coordinate responses among various stakeholders and levels, addressing local challenges and differences in governance systems. A mission-driven approach, focused on specific societal objectives and wicked problems, can be effective in addressing sustainability issues. Local missions, designed to tackle grand challenges at particular territorial levels, can provide continuous ownership and participation from local stakeholders. These missions can help develop policy priorities and promote place-based development pathways.
