Global Goals World Cup and Sport4SDGs collaborative
Leading football tournaments and organisations join forces to use their influence and arenas to fulfill the Agenda 2030, the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
On 8 June 2017 representatives from Nordic football tournaments and organisations will meet with the Norwegian Prime minister in Oslo to pledge their support for the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
- Sports and football are so much more than just activities; they represent a set of values, and as the world’s largest movement of people, sports and football also represent unique impact in the society at large
- The event includes a round table meeting where the founders will present their initiatives and discuss how to best grow and support the aim of the network
- The event will also include fun soccer activities symbolically placed outside the Nobel Peace Center at Rådhusplassen in the Oslo city centre where minister for EU, EEA and Nordic collaboration Frank Bakke-Jensen will attend
- Moderator for the round table meeting is former Freestyle Skiing Olympic Gold medalist Stine Lise Hattestad Bratsberg from Pure Consulting
The SDG pledge is the first step in building a network of committed sports actors, sharing best practice and developing tools that will engage and inspire action on the SDGs through sport.
