The 2020 SDG Global Festival of Action will take place in Bonn from 1-3 April and will provide a platform to meet with key people, activists and leaders in the field of SDGs, identify the most innovative ways to inspire action to achieve the SDGs and explore the transformations that are taking place to benefit people and the planet.
More than 2,000 SDGs actors from around the world, including artists, social innovators, philanthropists, international agencies and NGOs, local governments and national governments, academic institutions and leading enterprises will join forces to find new ways to inspire action to achieve the SDGs.
Applicants can apply by 10 January 2020.
The fourth SDG Global Action Festival will be an important milestone in accelerating progress towards sustainable development goals as 2020 marks the launch of the Decade of Action. Each thematic section of the Festival will be designed to meet and network, share experiences and explore ideas, approaches and methods to better prepare for joint efforts to achieve the Millennium Development Goals.
The high-level plenary meetings will bring together United Nations leaders, national and local government officials, progressive thinkers and change activists to discuss the political landscape, the importance of cooperation and how local solutions lead to global change. Each year, the Festival helps participants deepen their knowledge of SDGs and takes a practical approach to promoting SDGs. It will explore policies related to climate action, gender equality and inequality.
The Festival brings the global community of the SDG together: it strengthens cooperation and changes. This year, along with popular demonstration sites, the organizers will hold networking workshops. Throughout the festival, the SDG Live Studio will host live strategic presentations, TED-style talks on the SDG Action and interviews with influential experts. Media partners and content creators will be able to use the media area to tell the community about the most interesting festival events.
The exhibition area will explore practical experiences in translating local action into global impact. It is a special space where performances and demonstrations, installations and virtual tours will take place.
