Symposium on SDGs

　The event has ended. Thank you very much for your participation. Archive distribution is available as follows.
　The opportunity to listen to the word "SDGs" has increased. But it may be a distant place. Familiar issues such as garbage problems, difficulty in living due to gender differences, revitalization of truancy, local communities, and shopping streets, may actually be addressed by using the common language of SDGs. There may be a network that can cooperate with.
　Let's consider the future of Yokohama together based on the recognition of the efforts and issues of young people in Yokohama, such as Nishi Ward.
　In this symposium, we will first introduce the basics of the SDGs, and then present specific examples to young people.
　Let's learn together to create a society where no one is left behind, where we and the future generations can continue to live with peace of mind!
