Summary of Action
AgendaLab – Youth and Local Solutions for Sustainable Development project aims to strengthen young people’s understanding of the 2030 Agenda and its relevance to their daily lives. We inspire Finnish young people to contribute to the implementation of the goals locally by sharing practical sustainable development activities carried out by young people in Tanzania and Uganda. By sharing successes and joy, we will also inspire national decision-makers, local actors and individual citizens to strengthen the implementation of the Goals.
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development includes 17 goals to be achieved by 2030. At present, implementation of these goals, which are crucial for the viability of the planet and human well-being, is lagging badly behind. Young people are the largest population group globally, and also the group that will live with today’s decisions and their consequences. Failure to achieve the SDGs could undermine the stability of societies, increase inequalities and, at worst, contribute to the severe impacts of climate change.
In this project, we have selected four Agenda 2030 goals to focus on making their everyday impact visible and strengthening their implementation. The activities to be implemented will support young people’s empowerment and share and further develop good practices. The project will primarily target young people aged 15-21 in Finland.
The project is implemented in cooperation with The Union of Local Youth Councils in Finland (Nuva ry), the UN Schools Network run by the UN Association of Finland, UN and UNESCO youth delegates and youth organizations from Tanzania and Uganda.
