As a passionate advocate for the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and an active member of the UNA-USA Atlanta Chapter, I was thrilled to recently meet with the teams of Georgia Sens. Jon Ossoff (D) and Rev. Raphael Warnock (D) alongside my fellow UNA-Atlanta members, Tracy Gray, President, and Adria Kitchens. Together, we championed the importance of U.N. support for peacekeeping and humanitarian efforts, and I shared my personal passion for education in sustainable development.
Drawing from my experience teaching elementary students to conduct water quality tests, I highlighted how localizing and advancing SDG #6: Clean Water and Sanitation is key to fostering bright scientific minds who will create sustainable development infrastructures that provide clean drinking water across the United States and in other nations. It was an incredible opportunity to advocate for these essential causes, and I’m eager to continue pushing for U.N. support to ensure peacekeeping, humanitarian efforts, and education for sustainable development become realities worldwide!
