Hi Bill,

Late to the party, but at ZSL we recently did a sustainability audit where we discussed these goals and how we can bring our education sessions and the team itself more in line with them. At the moment we're doing a sustainability drive in the education department to make sure we practice what we preach. Feel free to get in touch if you want more info.

Cheers,

Heather

Hi Bill, that’s great, thanks. I can see how finding people/organisations who share a common interest in the SDGs is an approach for developing productive partnerships across different sectors.

 

Thanks again,

Henry

Hello- out of general curiosity, could you let me know if you’re using the Sustainable Development Goals at all in your work, or connecting what you already do with that agenda. If you don’t know it it is the 17 Global Goals to transform our world [for the better] by 2030, so reducing inequalities, poverty, injustice, environmental damage, climate action etc etc.

 

The SDGs are a fantastic agenda to connect with, whether locally, globally or local–globally, and are widely understood across different sectors (research, funders, 3rd sector, policy makers and planners).

(click on the icons for more information, and there are about 170 targets, some of which relate very obviously to museums).

 

Thanks in advance,

Henry
