Event Information
About this event
This course consists of two sessions held on 21st June 2021(1pm - 2.30pm) and 28th June 2021(1pm - 2pm) 2021
The Sustainable Development Goals were agreed in 2015 by all member states of the United Nations, to help concentrate minds on some of the most pressing issues of our time; Climate Change, Gender Equality, Decent Work, Hunger, Access to Education, and Protecting the land and seas, amongst others
In effect these goals are a call to action, for Governments, Community Groups, Individuals and Businesses. Their aims are equally relevant to developed and developing countries.
Our short two week course will:
• Introduce the 17 sustainable goals, while creating a space for groups to discuss and consider if these are important to you.
• Explore possible actions or projects in your community related to the goals.
• Consider the relevance of the goals in preparing funding bids
