SDG Lounge - Mission 1.5

Our planet is becoming hotter and more dangerous for everyone, everywhere. While time is running out, we can still save lives and limit the impacts of the climate crisis through decisive and urgent climate action. By massively reducing emissions, transitioning away from fossil fuels, enhancing climate finance, and protecting vulnerable communities, and fostering global cooperation, we can keep the 1.5°C target alive, ensuring a safer and more sustainable future for all.

This September, the United Nations will host the Summit of the Future, a key moment to strengthen global cooperation and multilateralism for the challenges ahead. Running alongside this milestone moment during the High-Level Week of the 79th UN General Assembly, the SDG Lounge at UN Headquarters will be a vibrant space for #GrowingSolutions to accelerate action toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Convened by the United Nations Deputy Secretary General and hosted by the UN Office for Partnerships, from 20 – 26 September, the SDG Lounge will feature unscripted dialogues, deep dives into vital issues and host interactive experiences—all designed to keep the promise of the SDGs today, tomorrow and for future generations to come.
