Social Impact Movement is a catalyst

for social change in Miami.

More than any time in our history, companies are reflecting upon the need to align their business with the triple bottom line prosperity, people, and planet. They realize that social justice is the filter through which all the other sustainable indicators follow into place. No matter which of the SDGs your company is aligned with or has decided to support, building a better planet for us to live and for our future generations starts by respecting and caring about our people.

Prosperity
People
Planet

No Poverty

About 1 billion people still live in poverty — defined as an income of less than US $1.25 per day

End Hunger

By 2030, we need to ensure that no one ever goes hungry

Good Health and Well Being

This Goal includes a comprehensive agenda for tackling a wide range of global health challenges

Decent work and economic work

At least 75 million young people around the world, aged 15-24, are unemployed, out of school, and looking at a bleak future

Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure

The world is becoming more industrialized, but often not in ways that are resilient and sustainable.

SUPPORT NOW

Quality Education

This Goal includes the promotion of education for sustainable development.

Gender Equality

Equality and empowerment includes freedom from discrimination and violence.

Reduced Inequalities

The world is astonishingly unequal: the richest 80 people have the same wealth as the bottom 3.5 billion

Sustainable cities and communities

More than half the world lives in cities, and by 2050, at least 66% will — and most of the growth in cities is happening in Africa and Asia

Peace, justice and strong institutions

Reduce violence. End torture. Decrease the production and flow of arms. Reduce corruption. Create governments and institutions that work

Partnership for the goals

The Targets are a comprehensive list of such needs, including the need for partnerships and collaboration

SUPPORT NOW

Cleaner water and sanitation

Basic water scarcity affects 40% of the global population, and nearly a billion people do not have access to that most basic of technologies: a toilet

Affordable and Clean Energy

Globally, about 1.3 billion people live without access to electricity.

Responsible consumption and production

The world’s nations have already agreed to make the way we produce and consume goods more sustainable

Climate action

Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts

Life below water

Global oceans and the life within them are overfished, under-protected, and stressed from climate change and pollution

Life on land

Life on land, on our beautiful planet Earth, is under terrible stress

#SDG12 Worldwide consumption and production — a

#SDG12 Worldwide consumption and production — a driving force of the global economy — rest on the use of the natural environment and resources in a way that continues to have destructive impacts on the planet.

Economic and social progress over the last century has been accompanied by environmental degradation that is endangering the very systems on which our future development — indeed, our very survival — depends.

The #COVID19 pandemic offers countries an opportunity to build recovery plans that will reverse current trends and change our consumption and production patterns towards a more sustainable future.

Sustainable consumption and production is about doing more and better with less. It is also about decoupling economic growth from environmental degradation, increasing resource efficiency and promoting sustainable lifestyles.

#SDG14 This pandemic offers an opportunity to revive the ocean and start building a sustainable ocean economy. A report by the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific suggests that the temporary shutdown of activities as well as reduced human mobility and resource demands due to the COVID-19 pandemic may provide marine environments the much-needed breathing space for them to start to recover. 2/2

#SDG14 Ocean conservation and action should not come to a halt while we tackle the COVID-19 pandemic. We need to look at long-term solutions for the health of our planet as a whole. Our lives depend on a healthy planet.

The health of the ocean is intimately tied to our health. According to UNESCO, the ocean can be an ally against COVID-19: Bacteria found in the depths of the ocean are used to carry out rapid testing to detect the presence of COVID-19. And the diversity of species found in the ocean offers great promise for pharmaceuticals.

The #COVID19 outbreak highlights the need to addre

The #COVID19 outbreak highlights the need to address threats to ecosystems and wildlife. In 2016, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) pointed out that 75% of all emerging infectious diseases in humans are zoonotic and that these zoonotic diseases are closely interlinked with the health of ecosystems.

“In COVID-19, the planet has delivered its strongest warning to date that humanity must change,” said UNEP Executive Director Inger Andersen.

So, as the world responds to and recovers from the current pandemic, it will need a robust plan for protecting nature, so that nature can protect humanity. To prevent, halt, and reverse the degradation of ecosystems worldwide, the UN has launched a Decade on Ecosystem Restoration (2021-2030). Learn more about it here: https://bit.ly/2DuT0Zo

Out of the 17 SDGs, trafficking in persons is specifically mentioned in three targets under three goals: 5 (Gender Equality), 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth) and 16 (Peace Justice and Strong Institutions). However, many other SDG targets and goals are also relevant to addressing trafficking in persons, an issue deeply rooted in development issues at-large including poverty, education, child labour, abuse and exploitation, gender inequality and discrimination, migration and the effects of climate change.

This post provides an explanation of these three specific targets 🤓

#SDG16 We cannot hope for sustainable development

#SDG16 We cannot hope for sustainable development without peace, stability, human rights and effective governance, based on the rule of law. Yet our world is increasingly divided. Some regions enjoy peace, security and prosperity, while others fall into seemingly endless cycles of conflict and violence. This is not inevitable and must be addressed.

Armed violence and insecurity have a destructive impact on every country’s development, affecting economic growth, and often resulting in grievances that last for generations. Sexual violence, crime, exploitation and torture are also prevalent where there is conflict, or no rule of law, and countries must take measures to protect those who are most at risk

The SDGs aim to significantly reduce all forms of violence, and work with governments and communities to end conflict and insecurity. Promoting the rule of law and human rights are key to this process, as is reducing the flow of illicit arms and strengthening the participation of developing countries in the institutions of global governance.
