Windesheim SDG-Challenge

The mission of the Windesheim SDG-Challenge is to inspire and mobilize students and organizations to work together on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations (UN). These goals are set to combat climate change and to reduce the inequalities in the world.

We invite everybody within Windesheim to join the challenge. Lecturers, support staff, administrative staff and students. This way we can create multidisciplinary teams where all can have an equal input.

And if English is not your strongest skill, do not worry! We will facilitate for you as well.
(Mocht Engels niet je sterkste kant zijn, wees gerust, ook jij kan meedoen en hier helpen we je ook bij!)

The organization of the SDG-Challenge developed a special "pressure-cooker", so that the teams will come up with tangible and actionable ideas that will contribute to the SDGs.

SDG-Challenge

"Windesheim SDG-Challenge" is a platform that activates the whole university and organizations to critically think about present-day sustainability topics and take action together.
