IT TAKES TWO MINUTES OF YOUR TIME TO HELP PUT MUN ON THE MAP
MUN Impact is an organisation that uses MUN to promote action to help accomplish the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that were set by the U.N. in 2015. These goals can be roughly divided into people focused, environment focused, and governance focused objectives.
Each Goal is broken down into targets, with a total of 169 such targets spread across the 17 goals. Because of this, each one has a manageable set of priorities to accomplish.
One target close to MUN Impact’s heart is 4.7, which states that by 2030, ensure that all learners acquire the knowledge and skills needed to promote sustainable development, including, among others, through education for sustainable development and sustainable lifestyles, human rights, gender equality, promotion of a culture of peace and non-violence, global citizenship and appreciation of cultural diversity and of culture’s contribution to sustainable development
MUN Impact strongly believes that MUN is the perfect vehicle to encapsulate the goal 4.7 and on behalf of the U.N, is trying to measure how many students and teachers are involved with MUN across the World.
In order to do this, it has created a 2-minute survey which will help put your MUN experience on the map. So please, can all Chairs, Delegates and Advisors here present at this conference help by following the link below and show the U.N. what an impact we are already making through MUN.
