In the last sprint Goal 14 was explored. We reviewed why and how the goals of SDG 14 are to be reached. We also drew links between Goal 14 and some of the other SDGs to create a web of sustainable development. The sprint finished up with a review of some of the progress towards the goal and finally case studies of the goal in action.
Following on from this video it’s now your turn to get to know a goal!

Alternatively you may pick a goal that you don’t know much about. You might want to learn more about a certain area of sustainable development. Or you may pick a goal that you feel is important. Whatever the reason summarise it in a few bullet points2. What are the key challenges or motivation associated with goal?
2. What are the key targets, actions and indicators of the goal?
3. How does the goal connect to other goals?
4. How does the goal connect to other goals?
5. Create your own web of interconnectivity based on the example above. Try and think of some real world global challenges that link the goals
