NO This supplement report reflects the outcomes of a collaborative intelligence process across an international community to identify use cases and digital innovations that ground a broader action plan in practical applications. The scope spans multiple global sectors, outlining specific technological advancements within water management, energy systems, agriculture, construction, transport, and urban governance. Using data synthesis and a standardized selection framework based on alignment, validation, and geographical diversity, the document provides indicative examples of digital transformations. The key findings indicate that information and communication technologies can significantly contribute to mitigating planetary crises through decarbonisation, dematerialisation, and detoxification. However, the report notes that digital power concentrations and unquantified rebound effects present ongoing challenges to achieving equitable, society-wide sustainability transformations.
