Greetings! Presenter Introduction
My name is Zaida Denise Forester and we are going to examine sustainable development and the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) agenda. Currently, I live in the USA, and enjoy traveling to different countries. I took all the pictures. The picture on this page was when I visited one of my favorite port cities, Odessa, Ukraine. The Module 1 picture is of a fountain in Corona, California. I took the Module 2 picture at the ruins in Pompeii, Italy. The Module 3 picture was taken when I was last in Genoa, Italy, another one of my favorite port cities. The Module 4 picture was taken when I finally made it to the top floor of the Eiffel Tower, Paris, France. In the "Questions" section this picture is from one of my favorite places in the world, Beijing, China. Yes, that is me in the lower right hand of the picture, in Tian'anmen Square, after I enjoyed some of the best vegan food in the world, at a nearby restaurant, with great company.
Sustainability is a topic I have been interested in my whole life. My parents were the quintessential sustainable role models. The United Nations (UN) 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has been a great undertaking for our world --and as global citizens, we can contribute to sustainable development in our homes, communities, and organizations. The United Nations envisions 17 Sustainable Development Goals to transform the world and we are all in this together as citizens of this planet!
