In September 2015, at the United Nations Sustainable Development Summit, 193 world leaders adopted the new 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, including the Sustainable Development Goals (Also known as The Global Goals)
There are 17 goals and targets that outline a vision for the future, for people and the planet. They have the power to achieve three great things: End poverty, fight inequality and stop climate change. The Global Goals are a great way to introduce different Global Citizenship topics into the classroom.

Green-Schools have put together a collection of short videos, fun indoor and outdoor activities and lesson plans to help you understand what the Global Goals are all about. We have less than a decade of action to achieve these goals.. will you help us spread the word?
