About this Event
Want to learn about the United Nations SDGs? Presented by Impact Hub Boston and United Nations Association of Greater Boston (UNAGB), we will focus on SDG 15: Life on Land.
In each event, we explore both the global and local work being done to address a United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) by featuring global and local experts (many being social enterprises and non-profits…many from Impact Hub Boston).
You will also have the chance to engage with other community members on SDG campaigning and advocacy in Boston.
