SDG GOALS AND OUR DAY TO DAY LIVES.


The SDGs are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity. They were adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015 as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

How the SDGs Impact Our Daily Lives

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), adopted by the United Nations in 2015, are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all. While they may seem like lofty global targets, the SDGs deeply impact our daily lives in numerous ways: 

 Food and Nutrition:

SDG 2: Zero Hunger: This goal directly impacts our daily meals. Choosing locally sourced, organic produce supports sustainable agriculture and reduces our carbon footprint. Reducing food waste by planning meals and composting leftovers aligns with this goal.

Health and Well-being:

  • SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being: This goal encourages us to prioritize our physical and mental health. Daily choices like exercising, eating nutritious food, and seeking mental health support contribute to this goal.

  • Education:
  • SDG 4: Quality Education: This goal emphasizes the importance of lifelong learning. Engaging in continuous learning, whether through formal education or informal means, empowers individuals and contributes to a more informed and engaged society.
  •  Environmental Sustainability:
  • SDG 13: Climate Action: Daily actions like conserving energy, reducing water consumption, and choosing eco-friendly transportation options play a crucial role in mitigating climate change.  
  • SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production:
  • Making conscious choices about the products we buy, reducing waste, and supporting sustainable businesses contribute to responsible consumption.
  •  Social Justice:
  • SDG 5: Gender Equality: Promoting gender equality in our daily interactions and supporting women's empowerment contribute to a more just and equitable society.
  • SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities: Supporting local businesses, volunteering in our communities, and advocating for social justice issues contribute to reducing inequalities within our society.

These young women, often between the ages of 19 and 22, are not just students; they are also mothers navigating the demanding worlds of academia and parenting amidst relentless societal scrutiny.
