Sustainable Development Goals Committee
GLOBAL GOALS, LOCAL LEADERS
The Sustainable Development Goals Committee was created in September 2015 as a hub for our members to implement local projects educating and advocating on the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. We are a diverse team of professionals and community activists. Our commonality is our passion to create positive change within our communities. We believe that the Sustainable Development Goals is applicable in a variety of settings, from local to global environments, serving as guidelines to building a sustainable world.
United Nations Association of Atlanta’s Sustainable Development Goals Committee thrives on our volunteers’ passions and dedication. If you would like to learn more about the SDG Committee or have an idea for an activity that will educate your community about the goals, please contact us at [email protected].

About the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals
On September 25th 2015, 193 world leaders committed to 17 Global Goals to achieve 3 extraordinary things in the next 15 years. End extreme poverty. Fight inequality and injustice. Fix climate change. The Global Goals for sustainable development could get these things done. In all countries. For all people. If the goals are going to work, everyone needs to know about them. You can’t fight for your rights if you don’t know what they are. You can’t convince world leaders to do what needs to be done if you don’t know what you’re convincing them to do. If the goals are famous, they won’t be forgotten.
We can be the first generation to end extreme poverty, the most determined generation in history to end injustice and inequality, and the last generation to be threatened by climate change.
