Providing pro-bono skills-based consulting on projects impacting the Global Goals for Sustainable Development
We exist to amplify how motivated individuals can contribute to The Global Goals for Sustainable Development through connecting them with social impact projects and initiatives.
We support organizations in scoping out projects which contribute directly to the UN Global Goals for Sustainable Development and match them with pro-bono consulting teams.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a UN-sponsored 15-year framework for achieving global development and sustainability goals by the year 2030.
The 17 SDGs (a.k.a. “Agenda 2030”) were adopted in 2015 by the UN General Assembly, succeeding the eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) set in 2000.
The MDGs and SDGs are the product of several decades of UN-led dialogues on coordinated global efforts to address the most pressing environmental social, and economic challenges facing the world community.
is also a global community of full-time team members providing year-round mentoring and other support to thousands of Ambassadors whose collective initiatives have impacted more than 30 million people around the world since 2010.
GE delegates returned from the 2014 Summit inspired by OYW’s vision and eager to engage. The upshot was GEnImpact: young GE professionals providing pro-bono consulting and related services to social enterprises engaged in SDG solutions.
