Sinds 2016 is Deventer Global Goal City. De Global Goals zijn vanuit het oogpunt van klimaat en maatschappij zeer urgent en relevant. Daarnaast bieden ze volop kansen voor innovatie van bestaande en nieuwe business.
Open houding naar de wereld Deventer wordt van oudsher gekenmerkt door een open houding naar de wereld om haar heen. Vanuit die houding heeft Deventer zich gecommitteerd aan de 17 Global Goals. Toen de VN in 2015 de 17 Sustainable Development Goals vaststelden (hierna Global Goals genoemd), werden deze direct geadopteerd door alle lidstaten als belangrijke gezamenlijke agenda, waaronder Nederland. Bedrijven en organisaties die de Global Goals in hun bedrijfsvoering omarmen, zijn de bedrijven van de toekomst. In 2018 is de kerngroep Deventer4GlobalGoals opgezet, met vertegenwoordigers uit onderwijs, bedrijfsleven, Ngo’s, cultuur en gemeente. NetSib Foundation neemt vanuit de Ngo’s als partner deel in de kerngroep Deventer4GlobalGoals. Deventer wint Global Goals Gemeenteverkiezing 2020 De gemeente Deventer heeft in januari 2020 de Global Goals prijs van de Vereniging Nederlandse Gemeenten International ontvangen als ‘Meest inspirerende gemeente’ in de categorie: ’Verbinder: Samenleving en bedrijfsleven.’ Deventer krijgt deze prijs omdat ze op innovatieve en impactvolle manier burgers, bedrijven en andere lokale partijen betrekt bij de implementatie van de Global Goals. Duurzaamheidscentrum Deventer Bij het stadskantoor in Deventer is het Duurzaamheidscentrum gevestigd. Hier kunnen burgers en bedrijven zich laten inspireren en informeren over hun eigen bijdrage aan duurzaamheid en klimaatverandering. De Nationale Ombudsman, Reinier van Zutphen, kwam op 17 september j.l. op bezoek voor overleg met een afvaardiging van de kerngroep Deventer4GlobalGoals. Gemeenten4GlobalGoals Vlaggendag 2020 Op 25 september a.s. bestaan de Global Goals 5 jaar. Ministeries, gemeenten, samen met duurzame bedrijven in Nederland, hijsen die dag de Global Goals vlag.

Former diplomat Coen Stork (89) passed away in his hometown Amsterdam.
Coen Stork was the ambassador of the Netherlands in Romania from 1988 to 1993. He reported to the Dutch media the tumultuous events in Bucharest and the rest of Romania during the fall of dictator Nicolae Ceausescu in 1989. After that time he was regularly invited to comment on the dictatorships and the fall of authoritarian leaders on television. Coen Stork was somewhat of an unorthodox diplomat, with an eye for artists and dissidents, for people who were in trouble. In his time spent in Romania, he offered assistance to the dissidents who suffered from the Ceausescu regime. From Deventer we have worked closely with Coen Stork in the period 1989-1993; from action-committee "Deventer helps Romania", foundation Deventer-Romania and the municipality of Deventer. He also followed the cooperation between Deventer and Sibiu after his resignation as ambassador with great interest and supported this cooperation were he could. During the great Romanian Event on October 7, 1995 in the Lebuinus Church in Deventer, Coen Stork held a speech for the more than a thousand visitors (see photo). His memoirs appeared in 2012 under the title The Red Ambassador. |
