UN and partners collaborate to increase awareness of and engagement with Sustainable Development Goals
The United Nations, in collaboration with the GSMA, which represents the interests of mobile operators worldwide, and Project Everyone, a non-profit global campaign, today launched the Sustainable Development Goals in Action mobile application, which provides a global forum through which industry, governments and individual citizens can collectively realise the promise of the SDGs.
“The Goals were adopted by Member States, but it is up to everyone – civil society, businesses and citizens alike – to achieve them. That is why the SDGs in Action mobile app is so timely. The app will bring the Goals closer to people and help make them more understandable and relatable to everyday life,” said Cristina Gallach, the UN Under-Secretary-General for Communications and Public Information. “So many people and groups around the world are already undertaking innovative projects in support of the Goals. What is special about this app is that it connects people and activists who want to make a difference in this world. I”m looking forward to seeing and reading about all these grassroots projects and achievements.”
