Sustainable Development Goals

On September 25th 2015, countries adopted a set of goals to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all as part of a new sustainable development agenda.

In 2015, the United Nations signed the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which includes a set of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), providing the following:

  • Economic and social development training and support,
  • Ending poverty,
  • Eradicating hunger,
  • Improving health,
  • Promoting equitable economic growth,
  • Ensuring education for all and
  • Supporting inclusive, peaceful societies.

Women in Action-wina proudly support the SDGs. Our work with marginalized communities  directly contributes to this ambitious agenda.

Women in Action’s work directly aligns with SDG goal #5 to achieve gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls. However, we believe women are central to every one of the SDGs. Discover how our work drives progress toward the SDGs of ending poverty, eradicating hunger, improving health, promoting equitable economic growth, ensuring education for all, and supporting inclusive, peaceful societies.
