SDG21 is a European digital platform dedicated to advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with an emphasis on promoting sustainability, social justice, and environmental stewardship across Europe. The medium acts as a hub for sharing knowledge, best practices, and innovations that support the implementation and localization of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
Through its website, SDG21 aggregates news, reports, data, and resources about progress, challenges, and solutions related to the SDGs. It highlights cross-sector cooperation, including actions by civil society, businesses, and governments, and fosters a pan-European conversation around urgent topics like climate change, poverty reduction, sustainable cities, and responsible consumption. The platform’s content often features European case studies and perspectives, addressing regional needs and priorities while connecting them to the global SDG framework.
SDG21 is part of a wider movement in Europe that leverages digital media, partnerships, and public engagement to accelerate sustainable development. It is complementary to other initiatives such as the SDG Media Compact, which brings together news and entertainment organizations to amplify SDG-related content, and networks like SDG Watch Europe, which unite NGOs for advocacy and monitoring. SDG21 thereby strengthens European collaboration and visibility on sustainability, providing accessible information and tools for policymakers, educators, and citizens alike.
