Join us at RSA House, and online, for a special event during London Climate Action Week 2024 where we will explore how to break down the barriers and bridge the divides that preventing progress towards sustainability and regeneration.

The 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) sit at the heart of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development – a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and planet, now and in the future. The goals are an urgent call for action by all countries in global, cross-sectoral partnership. They recognise that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.

At this event, leading figures from culture, industry and civil society will gather to share insights into how we more effectively foster the cross-sector collaboration that will be essential to accelerating our collective journey to achieving the goals.
