What Can I Do to Spread Awareness of the Global Goals?
As young people, we can organize workshops, symposiums, forums, and round tables where we can express our ideas and influence decision-making mechanisms regarding the Global Goals. Everyone must be aware of these goals for them to be achieved. 💯
