How do Partnerships Work in Early Childhood for Teacher Education and Industry? United Nations SDG 17 Sustainable Development Goal 17 calls for partnerships to achieve global goals, but what does this mean in practice when we combine Initial Teacher Education (ITE) with industry expertise to strengthen the physical dimension of early childhood development?

Who’s Funding the Future—and Who’s Getting Left Out SXSW 2026 Schedule | While billions flow into tech, too little reaches the people building for equity, justice, and long-term public benefit. This session brings together leaders rethinking who gets to fund emerging tech and why—across both venture capital and philanthropy. We'll explore how to back founders closest to the problems, build alternatives to extractive tech, and redirect capital toward innovation that actually serves communities. It's time to expand who defines innovation—and who profits from it.

What if philanthropy and VC stopped competing — and started sequencing?

Philanthropy de-risks what markets won't touch. Venture scales what works.

Somos VC at #SXSW on closing the gap for communities being left out of tech.

#umweltbildung #zukunft #verantwortung #oroverde #bne #tropenwald #sdg12 #sdg13 #sdg17 #eba | OroVerde – Tropical Forest Foundation Warum Umweltbildung ein Business-Case ist 🟢 Oft als „Schulthema“ belächelt, ist #Umweltbildung in Wahrheit das Fundament für eine zukunftsfähige Wirtschaft. Warum? Weil Wissen über Natur keine „Nische“ mehr ist, sondern die Basis für strategische Entscheidungen. Hier sind drei Gründe, warum ökologische Bildung in jedes Management-Board gehört: 1️⃣ Systemisches Verständnis von Risiken 📉 Wer ökologische Systeme nicht versteht, kann wirtschaftliche Risiken nicht fundiert einschätzen. Wo lernt man echtes „Systemdenken“ besser als bei den wahren Meister-Systemen: den Tropenwäldern? Diese komplexen Ökosysteme zeigen uns, wie Abhängigkeiten funktionieren und was passiert, wenn ein sensibler Baustein wegbricht. Wer den Wald versteht, versteht auch wesentliche Einflussfaktoren auf die Komplexität moderner Märkte. 2️⃣ Resilienz globaler Lieferketten 🚢 Unsere Lieferketten reichen einmal um den Globus. Umweltbildung schärft den Blick für die Zusammenhänge: Wie beeinflusst der Schutz des Regenwaldes in Brasilien oder im Kongo die Wasserverfügbarkeit und das Klima für Agrarrohstoffe weltweit? Nur wer den globalen Blickwinkel einnimmt, kann langfristig resiliente Strukturen aufbauen. 3️⃣ Innovation durch Bionik🧬 Die Natur ist die erfahrenste Ingenieurin der Welt mit einer 3,8 Milliarden Jahre langen Forschungs- und Entwicklungsabteilung. Von der Solarenergie der Pflanzen bis zu effizienten Kreislaufsystemen: Bildung öffnet Türen für nachhaltige Lösungen und radikale Innovationen, die weit über das „Greenwashing“ hinausgehen. Der Schutz kritischer Ökosysteme wie der Tropenwälder macht zudem deutlich: Ohne fundierte Bildung gibt es keine effektive Strategie gegen den Klimawandel. Wir können nur schützen, was wir verstehen und wir können nur nachhaltig wirtschaften, wenn wir die Grenzen und Mechanismen unseres Planeten kennen. #Zukunft #Verantwortung #OroVerde #BNE #Tropenwald #SDG12 #SDG13 #SDG17 #EbA
