Litter and Waste
The theme is a great starting point for encouraging a sense of personal pride and responsibility in tackling two visible issues in schools and communities.

Biodiversity
Biodiversity looks at steps which can be taken in schools to increase awareness of the importance of native plants, animals and habitats, and to increase species-richness in a locality.

Travel
The ultimate aim of the theme is to increase the number of students walking, cycling, scooting, using public transport or carpooling on the way to school.

Global Goal 11: Sustainable Cities

Global Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities

Global Goal 11 highlights the importance of creating inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable urban environments. Through books like ‘Last Stop on Market Street’ we explore themes of community, diversity and urban life. This narrative celebrates the richness of city life and prompts discussions on social inclusion, access to public spaces and environmental sustainability within cities.
