Global goals showcase 2017

In September 2015, 193 world leaders agreed 17 global goals for sustainable development. If these Goals are completed, it would mean an end to extreme poverty, inequality and climate change by 2030!

Our governments have a plan to save our planet, but it’s our job to make sure they stick to it.

In Leicester we want to raise the profile of the global goals so that every student knows what they are and how they can contribute!
