The United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals

"The Sustainable Development Goals are the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. They address the global challenges we face, including those related to poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace and justice. The 17 Goals are all interconnected, and in order to leave no one behind, it is important that we achieve them all by 2030."

To develop an idea for a product or service that addresses a logistics issue, start with the same resources you used for your individual research assignment earlier in the semester. For example:

Find information about logistic issues within information regarding a public company's supply chain.
Search the corporate website. Many companies have reports on their websites to describe their processes with logistics.
Go to industry trade sites for ideas and use the website's search box to look up keywords. See trade sites linked below.
Two business databases that will let you filter your search results to trade publications are Business Source Elite and One Business. Both are linked below.
Statista is another database with reports on issues within the logistics industry.
Wall Street Journal: If you use Google to search for WSJ articles, enter your keyword(s) and then the search operator "site." Example: logistics industry site:wsj.com
