Global Goals Week 2020 At a Glance

The Global Goals Week 2020 was a bit different this year, and we missed being in New York City and host the GGWCUP Finals.

Thank you to each of you who joined the more than 164 events during the week.

On September 21 we were so honoured to be teaming up with Peace One Day for #PeaceDay - The UN International Day of Peace - and invite you to join the live global broadcast AND have a football match for peace. You united with millions around the world for a day filled with hope, reflection and connection.

Thanks again.

The week in a glance

During Global Goals Week 2020, over 100 partners mobilized their communities, demand urgency to turn it around for the Global Goals, and supercharge solutions for people and planet.

The countries of the United Nations made a universal promise to leave no one behind in achieving a peaceful and prosperous world by 2030. Global Goals Week is a shared commitment between 100+ partners across civil society, business, academia, and the UN system to accelerate action on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially during the UN General Assembly High-level Week. It is also an opportunity to speak out as one voice, share ideas and transformative solutions in the fight to recover better from global challenges.
