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 16: Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions

Global Goal 16: Peace Justice and Strong Institutions

Global Goal 16 is important for our Global Goals Book Club as it emphasises the importance of promoting peaceful and inclusive societies for a sustainable future. Through books like ‘I Dissent’ and ‘The Well of Lost Wishes’, we explore themes of justice, equality and the rule of law. These stories inspire children to understand the significance of fair governance, human rights and standing up for what is right.

Global Goals Book List:

The Well of Lost Wishes (from the book Why the Moon Travels) by Oein deBhairduin

I Dissent: Ruth Bader Ginsburg Makes Her Mark’ by Debbie Levy
