Wir tun was für unsere Welt – Die 17 UN-Ziele

VS Bendagasse
Doing something for our world—The 17 UN goals is a way for us children and adults to draw attention to the problems in our world. Although many kids know that they enjoy a good life, things that are always readily available (mobile phones, toys, food, housing…) are still taken for granted. Through our work with the 17 UN goals, we became aware of the degree to which children in other countries are negatively impacted by our consumer culture and throwaway society and by the climate change that results from this, and that many children have a poor quality of life due to violence, poverty, and gender inequality. At least in some small ways, we have already succeeded in bringing about changes: we were able to take this knowledge home with us and convince our parents to do more with regard to separating trash, saving electricity, and using rainwater for irrigation.
But it shouldn’t stop at that. With our projects, we want to also raise the awareness of other children about the problems in the world and about the UN goals, because: “WE ARE MAKING A CONTRIBUTION TO OUR WORLD!”
