AGORATALK: Which skills do you need to become a changemaker for sustainable development? (EN)

By 2030, we need to reach the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, the annual Sustainable Development Report shows that we made little progress so far. Therefore, planet earth is in need of changemakers for sustainable development who can speed up the required transformative change. In this session, we will discuss some important competence frameworks, such as the Inner Development Goals, that might help you to become one of these changemakers.
