Show the effect that your project creates for a sustainable future
What can our contribution to climate protection, fair working standards, social equality and against hunger and poverty be? The 2030 Agenda with its 17 goals for sustainable development serves as a guide. This was adopted on September 25, 2015 by 193 heads of state and government at the United Nations summit in New York.
The 17 goals take into account all three dimensions of sustainability - social, environmental, economic - equally and apply to all countries in the world. They make it clear that we have a shared responsibility for the world. You can find detailed information here: https://17ziele.de/
In order to implement the 2030 Agenda in Germany as well, the federal government adopted the German Sustainability Strategy in 2016 and updated it in 201
The Federal Statistical Office compiles an indicator report every two years. It shows how far the German Sustainability Strategy has already been implemented and where there is a need for further action. You can find the indicators here: https://sdg-indikatoren.de/
The success of the 2030 Agenda depends on everyone taking part – not just states and organizations, but each and every individual. Everyone can contribute.
The more people take part, the easier it is to build an international partnership for sustainable development. Because only together will we create a better, fairer and more sustainable world.
Starters can specify which of the #17 goals their own project contributes to in the project interface under "Sustainability goals". Each goal is of equal importance, because in the end everything is connected: there is no fair world without climate protection and if we want to protect our earth, that also means that we take every living being seriously.
You can decide which primary and up to three secondary goals your project contributes to. In a short statement you explain your selection to your supporters. The primary goal together with your statement is displayed on your project page. In the project search, your project can be found under both the primary and secondary categories.
In the future, projects with sustainability goals will also be given special recognition in cofunding campaigns and in the sorting of all projects. The Startnext public relations team promotes projects with sustainability goals in their own communication.
You can maintain the sustainability goals in all phases.
