Contents
1. What are SDGs? How different from MDGs?
2. How to Achieve SDGs?
3. Space Technology for SDG
4. Pacific’s Future Plans
What are SDGs
17 SDGs implies…
1. Qualitative development
Rather than quantitative outputs such as GDP
2. Balancing needs of present and future generations
Incorporating environment and disaster aspects
MDGs vs SDGs
MDGs
1. Quantitative
GDP
2. Fragmented 8 Goals
3. No indication for synergy and innovation
SDGs
1. Qualitative
Quality of life
2. Integration among 17 Goals
3. Need to think synergy and innovation
Philippines Poverty Head (1985-2012)
GDPPC: GDP per capita, Current USD – Red line
PHR: Poverty headcount ratio at $1.25 a day, % of population – blue line
Indonesia Poverty Head (1985-2012)
GDPPC: GDP per capita, Current USD – Red line
PHR: Poverty headcount ratio at $1.25 a day, % of population – blue line
SDGs Should Aims at
1. Innovative productivity in manufacturing and service
Focusing on increasing returns of economic scale
2. New environment-friendly industry and service sector
Ecologically efficient + economic efficient
3. Created new wealth should be equally distributed with social safety network
Social net + high quality education + good housing + land planning + disaster-prior managing designs
4. Organic (systematic) social system integrating above three, should be developed
Key questions: Space and GIS for SD
1. What space tech and GIS applications mean in modern times?
2. How contribute to SDGs including disasters?
3. How contributes to innovation and synergy among SDG sectors beyond disaster sector?
Innovation comes from convergence of two different merge.
4. How space tech and GIS can support better developing countries?
What Space Tech and GIS Provide
1. Add new view and information for decision making
Socio economic data + geospatial data for decision making
Enables both macro and micro views
2. Add innovation and explosive productivity
Disaster, Agriculture, transport, urban, resource management, land planning…..
3. Add mobility and locations
Using not only satellites and sensors, but also individual devices (smartphones, laptops)
4. How about convergence?
Unknown ideas and new industry in future?
Space Technology for SDG
Used for DRR, and for other areas…
Sources: Land Information System Austria (Top); TatukGIS (Bottom left); VisitPortugal (Bottom right)
Underground Facility Management
Land-Use Information Management
Smartphone App for Tourist Map
Case: South Korea and Google
Google requested 1:5,000 scale geospatial data from South Korea for…
1. Provision of world-wide map application service in Korea
• To not only Koreans, but also individual tourists
2. Provision of Google Map API to start-ups in Korea
• For business expansion of the start-ups
• For developing new and innovative industry
Case: South Korea and Google
South Korea currently pending its response…
1. Sensitiveness of sharing detailed geospatial data
• National security issue as the only divided nation
2. Korea’s domestic GIS industrial ecosystem
• Difficulty in competing with Google’s map-based services
Space Tech beyond Disaster
1. Space tech application is essential to effective DRR.
2. Use of space tech and GIS in Pacific is behind other regions.
3. Not only for DRR, more roles of space tech in SDG sectors.
4. In particular, contribution to innovation and explosive productivity.
What we can do together for Pacific
1. Provide knowledge and technologies
2. Capacity building training
3. Facilitate Ministries and Nations to work together
4. Draw Pacifica voices, plans and commitments
5. Connect with donors to listen Pacific voices and channel fund
6. Present Pacific voices to international/regional meetings
Space leaders Forum
Ministerial Conference on Space
UNGGIM, RESAP, ………….
Hope to think more
1. Regional organizations may meet often and exchange ideas to make concrete actions for Pacific countries.
2. Pacific countries may make mid-term action plans based on priority and country conditions
3. Donor countries may put more weight on Pacific countries in design supporting programmes .
