About SDG Action
SDG Action was launched to support the UN’s Decade of Action – the global effort to mobilize governments, businesses, and civil society to deliver the SDGs by 2030.
SDG Action is a resource for sustainability practitioners in all sectors and brings timely analysis of the most pressing challenges. Its emphasis is on identifying opportunities and providing tangible ways to accelerate progress. This website features articles from world-leading experts on all aspects of the SDGs and climate action.
We publish regular online, special-focus editions, timed to coincide with major global diplomacy events, and there is a print edition released to coincide with the United Nations General Assembly in September. Past editions can be viewed on the publications page.
The UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) served as a founding partner, helping to launch the publication in 2021.
Please do contact us at info@sdg-action.org if you would like to share feedback and ideas or would like to be involved.

Supporters
SDG Action is grateful for the editorial input and collaboration on audience engagement from the following supporters:
Alliance of Excellence for Research and Innovation on Aephoria
The Alliance of Excellence for Research and Innovation on Αephoria (AE4RIA) is an initiative for collaboration between research institutions, innovation accelerators, science-technology-policy interface networks, scientific associations, and academies focused on sustainable development. Its mission is to facilitate a science-driven and human-centric transformation towards the joint implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals of UN Agenda 2030, the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, and the European Green Deal.
Climate Technology Centre and Network
The Climate Technology Centre and Network (CTCN) was established by the COP/CMA in 2010. Hosted by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP), and supported by a network of national, regional and international organizations, the CTCN accelerates the development and transfer of technologies.
SDSN Global Climate Hub
The SDSN Global Climate Hub (GCH) provides science-based recommendations for combating the climate crisis. It combines extensive data, knowledge, and technologies provided by experts in multiple fields to implement country-specific action plans. The GCH is structured as nine units, which reflect the stages that a country will progress through on its path to climate neutrality and resilience.
UN Women
UN Women exists to advance women’s rights, gender equality, and the empowerment of all women and girls. As the lead United Nations entity on gender equality and secretariat of the UN Commission on the Status of Women, it supports governments in setting global standards and shaping laws, policies, and institutions to close the gender gap and build an equal world for all women and girls.
