ACCELERATING GLOBAL SDG IMPLEMENTATION
UNGSII FOUNDATION
In September 2015, 193 heads of state pledged their commitment to implement the
17 Sustainable Development Goals at the United Nations.
The UNGSII FOUNDATION was created to assist and accelerate the implementation process. Their mission is to ensure that the world reaches its goal, at the latest, by 2030.
UNGSII's strategic approach to Global Social Change is based on three main pillars:

SDGs & THE UNGSII FOUNDATION
​
The world's promising new future was solidified by the UN led SDG Global Compact uniting 193-member states in agreement of how the world should look by the year 2030. Implementing the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) will indeed afford a better future. Despite vast differences on religion, values, and cultural frames the national leaders have agreed to focus on the common needs over short-sighted indifferences. The world has yet to truly understand and appreciate the unprecedented act of unity and leadership formalized by the signing of the SDGs. UNGSII was initiated by senior UN Executives, financial market experts, business leaders and academics as an independent, stand-alone entity designed to raise funds, educate, initiate and support SDG based programs. UNGSII is leading the global celebration of people, companies, NGOs, non-profits, agencies and other entities who are working tirelessly to turn the SDGs into reality.
