During this meeting, crucial information was presented on the progress and challenges in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). For Turma do Jiló, this was a unique opportunity to receive data directly from some of the key areas of the UN, which are on the front lines to guide the world towards a more equitable and sustainable future.

2030 SDGs: The Commitment to a Better World
For those unfamiliar, the UN SDGs are 17 ambitious goals set to be achieved by 2030. They aim to create a better world, reversing the damage already caused to the planet and promoting gender equality, mental health, combating social inequalities, and building sustainable cities, among others. Participation in the Summit reinforces Turma do Jiló's commitment to Inclusive Education and Diversity, themes intrinsically linked to the SDGs. We believe that through knowledge and action, we can drive the necessary changes so that no one is left behind.
The experience at the UN in New York was not just a trip, but a deep dive into the 2030 Agenda and the actions we can take to make the world a more welcoming and just place. May this experience inspire even more young people to be agents of transformation in their communities, connecting their realities to the great global mission of the SDGs.
