The UN at DMU: Accelerating Impact for the SDGs (Staff and Students Only)
Two senior officials from the United Nations (UN) will join students and staff to discuss how we accelerate our efforts to meet the targets of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDGs). At the half-way point of the UN’s Agenda 2030, it is a timely opportunity to take stock and discuss how we accelerate our efforts to meet the targets of the SDG framework against a backdrop of global challenges including post-Covid-19 recovery, the war in Ukraine and the impacts of climate change. The university has made great strides in embedding research, teaching and providing activities to impact the SDGs in its role as a UN Academic Impact Hub for Sustainable Development Goal (SDGs) 16, a consultant NGO to the UN Economic and Social Council and a UN Climate Observer for the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). This is an opportunity for you to meet and share your ideas for a better future with those tasked with promoting the global goals.
The event will be followed by networking and light refreshments.
This is open to all and bookings will close 1 hour prior to the start of the event.
