., today announced at MIPJunior in Cannes, France, details of their collaboration to incorporate a number of the Sustainable Development Goals into the storylines of the animated children’s television series Thomas & Friends™.
(...) The collaboration was formed out of a series of writers’ workshops organised by the UN’s Creative Community Outreach Initiative in January 2017, where the Thomas & Friends™ production team worked with experts from the United Nations and several of its funds, programmes and agencies to identify the SDGs most organic to the Thomas & Friends™ storylines and that could most readily be adapted for a preschool audience.
(...) Once children understand these concepts, they will grow to be more responsible adults. ”
Kate Schlomann added: “ We see great value in the Sustainable Development Goals and chose the ones that felt most natural to the Thomas & Friends™ storyline and provided opportunity for a new type of life lesson using messaging that is easy to understand for a preschool audience.

Within the Pathways project storylines are further used as an organizing framework for the scenarios to be developed as part of the modelling.
(...) The choice of markers was based on which of the initial quantifications best reflected the storyline, and the features of specific models. Markers are no more likely than other scenarios, but are considered by the SRES writing team as illustrative of a particular storyline.
