Take part in the "Promise Board": Are you committed?
Taking small steps to help the environment, following responsible consumption criteria or changing our eating habits are some of the important things we can do to make the world better: Are you committed? Put your name on the Promise Board!
The promise board is a public participation initiative developed as part of the Yes, I'm committed campaign organised by Barcelona Provincial Council to raise local awareness of the sustainable development goals (SDGs).
In 2015 the United Nations adopted the 2030 Agenda, establishing 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) with the aim of improving all aspects of our world and making it more sustainable. This calls for the collaboration not only of national governments and international institutions, but also local and regional institutions and, above all, citizens.
Barcelona Provincial Council is committed to implementing the 2030 Agenda and to aligning its policies with these goals. Combating climate change, ensuring public access to information, eradicating poverty and developing sustainable tourism which promotes local culture and products are among the Council's commitments to the 17 SDGs. This requires not just the involvement of local and regional institutions. The commitment of our citizens is vital if the SDG are to be achieved. So: Are you committed? Write it on the Promise Board!
Say how you will contribute to achieving the SDGs on the Promise Board: Are you committed?
