Localizing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

In this interactive workshop JP Bervoets, Vice President, Community Foundations of Canada and Martha Powell, President & CEO, London Community Foundation will provide an introduction on the SDGs and how they can be localized. London Community Foundation’s Vital Signs report will be used as an example of how we can create a shared language, measure change and impact, and connect what’s happening locally to the global goals.

Through active discussion with local experts we will examine the most pressing issues in our community as identified by LCF’s Vital Signs report and explore how our work locally can be tied to the SDGs.

Hosted by Pillar Nonprofit Network and Innovation Works in partnership with London Community Foundation and Community Foundations of Canada, this workshop will offer an opportunity to explore how your organization can leverage its strengths to create a bigger local impact and contribute to this global initiative.

Target Audience:
Leaders and staff of nonprofit organizations, charities, social enterprises and individuals looking to learn more about the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals
