Who are we?
is a youth educational project focused
on the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
We are a young team with achievements in scientific conferences, professional competitions, scholarships, and projects. We don’t position ourselves as “experts from above” — we are passionate about sustainability and speak about it honestly, simply, and clearly.
We believe that sustainable development is not an abstract theory, but a real part of life that affects everyone. Our goal is to make sustainability understandable, engaging, and accessible for all.
