She highlighted the race to reach the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), end the climate crisis, and push for real gender equality.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat happens today is a reflection of leaders meeting all week, promises made seven years ago, and today we\u2019re recommitting to what the great Al Pacino said, tell it like it is: it\u2019s halftime, and we\u2019re down\u2026but we\u2019re not out!\u201d She asked the crowd assembled in the green heart of Manhattan if they felt like they were changing the world: \u201cWell at the United Nations, we\u2019re joining you, we are mobilizing people around the world.\u201d Global Citizen\u2019s main mission is to end extreme poverty, through goals that align fully with the UN and the SDGs.<\/p>\n<p>At the Festival, global leaders pledged $240 million for the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), promised to protect a further 900,000 hectares of land in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest, and secured promises from nine members of the US Congress, and the leader of the Labour Party in the UK, Kier Starmer, to follow through on national climate commitments.<\/p>\n<p>The Deputy Secretary-General acknowledged that many around the world are hurting both in \u201cmind and body\u201d, with wars raging, and the planet not just warming &#8211; but boiling. \u201cLeaders are really struggling to use their power to keep the promises of the Global Goals and they risk breaking that promise to billions of people\u201d, she said. The good news is with seven years remaining to 2030, the game can still be won in the second half, but \u201cwe can\u2019t win unless we stop our world from heating up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need leaders to bridge the digital divide \u2013 because we can\u2019t win if billions of people especially girls are left offline and left behind.\u201d She said if women and girls are left on the sidelines of the collective effort, that means half the team isn\u2019t even on the field. \u201cSo New Yorkers, it\u2019s crunch time. But crunch time is when champions are made\u201d, she said. \u201cLet\u2019s unite and fight together \u2013 inch by inch \u2013 to keep the promise of achieving the Global Goals by 2030.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Source: The UN<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/news.un.org\/en\/story\/2023\/09\/1141397<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/its-crunch-time-to-reach-the-sdgs-mohammed-tells-global-citizen-festival\/\">\u2018It\u2019s crunch time\u2019 to reach the SDGs, Mohammed tells Global Citizen Festival<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[981,555,11581,757,11582],"class_list":["post-117146","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-citizen","tag-csr-news-en","tag-festivas","tag-global","tag-sdgs"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117146","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=117146"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117146\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=117146"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=117146"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=117146"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
