Creating a Better and More Inclusive Future.


The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are intended to be universal in the sense of embodying a universally shared common global vision of progress towards a safe, just and sustainable space for all human beings to thrive on the planet.

The aim of our project is to raise awareness within the UofG community about the SDGs, identify how the university is being proactive towards SDGs and, ultimately, create a framework that supports SDGs-focused societies’ projects and inspire new ones.

We are achieving this is through online-based collaborative work. We develop informative content about SDGs that is shared through our social media.

Our Goals

Our Sustainable Development Goals are the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. They address the global challenges we face, including poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace and justice.
