17 Goals to Transform Our World

Since 2016, the SDG Media Zone has been one of the main features of major events at the United Nations, including the UN General Assembly high-level week, the UN Youth Forum and the UN High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development. It brings together world leaders, influencers, activists, experts, content creators and media partners to highlight actions and solutions in support of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Organized by the UN Department of Global Communications, in collaboration with the PVBLIC Foundation, the SDG Media Zone takes the conversation on advancing the 2030 Agenda out of the policy sphere and into the public discourse through impactful in-depth interviews and conversations on global issues that matter to people everywhere.

The Future We Want: Conversations on the Power of Youth in a Post-Pandemic World

The SDG Media Zone kicks off the 10th annual UN Youth Forum with conversations on advancing the Sustainable Development Goals as the world responds and recovers from the COVID-19 crisis. The SDG Media Zone will look at some of the most defining issues affecting young people today—climate change, reducing inequalities and mental health.

Under the theme, “The Future we Want,” the SDG Media Zone co-produces candid and inspiring conversations between thought leaders with major media organizations such as the BBC World Service and others to amplify the voices and visions of young people who are central to the global efforts to recover better, stronger and together.

The 15 to 20-minute conversations, focused on reimagining a more equal and fairer world, will capture youth perspectives on global to community-level problems and solutions, taking the Sustainable Development Goals into the public discourse, particularly at a time of unprecedented paradigm shifts, and sweeping opportunities and challenges that come with change in a post-pandemic world.

Check out the SDG Media Zone programme and stay tuned for conversations that matter.
