Sustainable Development Goals 2030: Transforming our World
The 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda (SDGs) provides a framework for our work with the United Nations. The SDGs with its 17 goals mobilizes our energies in education, awareness raising and advocacy. Women and children are our specific areas of concern and act as a lens through which we address issues such as Gender Equity, Eradication of Poverty, Education for Global Citizenship, Trafficking in Persons, Climate Change and Financing for Development.
Los ODS y la encíclica del Papa Francisco 'Laudato Si', dos documentos emblemáticos de nuestro tiempo, se instituyeron en 2015. Si bien encarnan una lente diferente, tienen el objetivo común de acabar con la pobreza y no dejar a nadie atrás. Consideramos 'Laudato Si' como una carta moral de los ODS.
Together with our network, we implement programs that contribute to achieving the SDGs. Mary Ward International (MWI) is the fund and friend-raising office of the Institute. It seeks to develop and strengthen partnerships amongst the IBVM/CJ global network of members, co-workers, past pupils, present students, friends and connections to assist with development works around the world.
