SDGs+Beyond Future Society for Life Week
Shaping the Future with JICA: The SDGs, Dynamic Realities of Developing Countries, and Our Path Forward
Japan International Cooperation Agency
The year 2025 marks the tenth anniversary of the United Nations' adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Over the past decade, the circumstances facing developing countries have changed significantly. With less than six years remaining until the target year 2030 for achieving the SDGs, it is crucial to consider what we must focus on to ensure that we can work together toward a sustainable global society. We look forward to a meaningful and engaging discussion with the participants on these vital issues!
This event is hosted by the JICA Ogata Sadako Research Institute for Peace and Development.
