The Sustainable Development Goals are marking their 75th anniversary at a time of great disruption for the world. Will we emerge stronger and better equipped to work together? Or will distrust and isolation grow further? 2020 must be a year of dialogue, when we come together to discuss our priorities as a human family, and how we can build a better future for all.

Join the local Regional Center of Expertise as it launches North Texas’s biggest conversation on building a better future for us all. There are three exciting virtual events starting Global Goals Week:
