Can we change the goals of development without changing the implementers?
The latest draft of the Sustainable Development Goals and targets contains a stunning list of commitments, but fails to address how we will achieve them.
Have your say! Take part in our consultation on forests and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We want to know what you think is most important for the SDGs from a forest perspective. In this part of the consultation, we invite you to participate in an online discussion game to give your opinions. We will be discussing both the best possible outcomes and the conditions we need for transformative sustainable development.
If you have not yet taken part in our five-question survey, we would welcome your opinions before it closes on Friday 08 August. You can take part in English, French or Spanish and it should take no more than five minutes to complete.
