Al-Taqwa University is Delighted to Announce Its Global Membership with Sustainable Development Solution Network (SDSN). Congratulations!
The UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) has been operating since 2012 under the auspices of the UN Secretary-General. It is a United Nations-supported initiative established to promote practical problem-solving for sustainable development and raise the profile for sustainability in academic institutions around the world. SDSN mobilizes global scientific and technological expertise to promote practical solutions for sustainable development, including the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Paris Climate Agreement.
SDSN aims to accelerate joint learning and promote integrated approaches that address the interconnected economic, social, and environmental challenges confronting the world. It works closely with United Nations agencies, multilateral financing institutions, the private sector, and civil society. Much of SDSN’s work is led by National and Regional SDSNs, which mobilize knowledge institutions around the SDGs. Several Thematic Networks mobilize experts from around the world on the technical challenges of implementing the SDGs and the Paris Climate Agreement. SDSN has offices in India, Paris, and New York.
