Coalition 2030 Conference
The Coalition 2030 conference looks at how we can use the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to push for a Just Recovery from COVID 19.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) or Global Goals are a collection of 17 interlinked global goals designed to be a “blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all”. The SDGs were set up in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly and are intended to be achieved by the year 2030.
Coalition 2030 is the Irish civil society coalition for the sustainable development goals, made up of 4 pillars: unions, national equality and poverty organisation , international aid and development agencies, and environmental organisation. The coalition is made up of an alliance of 75 civil society organisations who work together to ensure Ireland keeps its promise to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), both at home and abroad.
