Making the Sustainable Development Goals Relevant for a New Generation
Join us on February 27, 2024, from 12:00 PM to 1:30 PM in Dunton Tower 1111A for a lecture by Ioanna Sahas Martin, Fellow-In-Resident at the Bachelor of Global and International Studies Program.

With the poly-crisis in full swing, how relevant are the SDGs to a new generation of policymakers and voters? Is “leaving no one behind” attainable?
