Who We Are

Our Mission

An SDG House is a regional or municipal hotspot for sustainability events and entrepreneurship, convening people who share the common goal of achieving the SDGs. We aim to serve our communities by linking up local initiatives with national agendas, creating physical spaces for like-minded organisations to collaborate, and pooling expertise through partnerships to work on the SDGs.

Our Vision

To build SDG Houses around the world and foster cross-boundary partnerships to accelerate the SDGs. We believe in an inclusive and sustainable world where everyone feels at home.

Our Impact

We bring new opportunities for collaboration to individuals and organisations who want to contribute to the SDGs.
