United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals are a set of goals developed in September of 2015. These goals aim to tackle 17 global issues that were agreed upon to be the most important issues our planet is facing. These goals are a great way to focus your global learning through STEM and will help guide your students in choosing issues that are not only important to their communities but also to the global community. Below is a great infographic showing all 17 goals. To learn more about the UN SDGs or access this same graphic as an interactive resource, CLICK HERE!
