The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a blueprint developed by the United Nations to guide member states towards peace and prosperity. Today, the SDGs are used by many organizations as a framework for doing good.
In this panel, we'll explore how businesses and organizations are using the SDGs in unique and impactful ways.
Sustainability is core to our mission at Women and Climate. For our holiday event, we took the following considerations:
Selecting a venue that offers reusable dinnerware, cutlery, and glassware
Offering a fully plant-based dinner and drink menu
Programming topics focused on sustainability
Reusable name tags for attendees
Absence of SWAG
