Examples of SDG 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure in Action

This page shares stories and examples of Sustainable Development Goal 9 in action. SDG 9 focuses on building resilient infrastructure, promoting inclusive and sustainable industrialization, and fostering innovation. This goal aims to improve the quality of infrastructure across industries, support the development of sustainable industries, and encourage the adoption of new technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and innovations. SDG 9 emphasizes the importance of expanding access to affordable, reliable, and sustainable technology, particularly in developing countries, to stimulate economic growth and provide opportunities for all. Advancing innovation and strengthening industrial infrastructure, this goal aims to create sustainable, inclusive economies that can withstand future challenges.

Jukebox In Exile is the new country music album from Flin Flon singer-songwriter C.C. Trubiak, blending classic country, honky-tonk, Americana and traditional storytelling into a collection of songs inspired by resilience, community and life in Northern Manitoba. Written during and after the 2025 Flin Flon wildfire evacuation, the album draws influence from country music legends including Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings and George Jones. Featuring the singles "Old Country Songs," "Being Rich" and the charting track "Outlaws Meditation," Jukebox In Exile showcases Trubiak's signature songwriting while celebrating small-town life, northern Canadian culture, queer country music and the enduring spirit of Flin Flon. The album is available now on major music streaming platforms.
Manitoba's own C.C. Trubiak's new album "Jukebox in Exile" dropped on June 5! Check it out today!
