Get ready for January 2022 and another edition of our Virtual Global Goals Experiential Learning Program! You can embark on this exciting virtual journey to learn about the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and virtually visit important UN destinations from 9th - 21st January 2022. You will meet virtual guest speakers from organizations, such as the UN Environment Programme as well as inspiring social entrepreneurs from around the world and become a Goalkeeper for one of the 17 SDGs. In addition, you team up with international peers to tackle your own SDG Challenge Project.
People & Friends will lead this program and teach you state-of-the-art entrepreneurial tools and methods in order for you to develop your own social start-up from scratch. You will present your results at the end of the program to a jury of experienced social entrepreneurs to receive valuable feedback. On top of that, you can enjoy numerous SDG-related virtual experiences, such as a virtual cooking class led by a sustainable start-up, visit the Machu Picchu (a UN World Heritage site) and go on a virtual tour of New York City.
