Professor Fu has been invited to join the Leadership Council of the United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network.

In 2012, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon launched the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) to mobilize global scientific and technological expertise to promote practical problem solving for sustainable development, including the design and implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Following their adoption, SDSN is committed to supporting the implementation of the SDGs at local, national, and global scales.

As part of the leadership council, Prof Fu will help to oversee the work of the Sustainable Development Solutions Network. The network comprises eminent experts on sustainable development from academia, business, civil society, and the public sector.
