【Two Couples Affair in Broad Daylight】

The Two Couples Affair in Broad DaylightUnited Nations adopted the Sustainable Development Goalsnearly four years ago, charting a course to address the world’s most serious challenges — and to see major results by 2030. To reach this deadline, we’ll need to come together as global citizens in the most massive, world-changing project ever attempted. That means everyonedeserves a seat at the table.

That’s the central idea behind the Social Good Summit, which brings together global citizens from every walk of life to share their ideas and energy to create the world we all deserve. Every year, Mashable, the United Nations Foundation, the United Nations Development Programme, and the 92nd Street Yhost the Summit as a space for this crucial conversation, connecting today’s global leaders with tomorrow’s innovators and activists. This year’s sponsor, Pfizer, provides support for our efforts.

For its landmark 10th year, SGS 2019 will focus on an issue that has implications for every aspect of our lives: climate change. Many of us have already experienced serious implications from climate change, and the global poor are already facing outsized impacts. From rising waters to food scarcity, we will all increasingly feel more of climate change’s effects as the world warms
