CIFAL Curitiba- SDG Indicators for NGOs
Sustainability, in all its dimensions, has been an increasing important issue in the whole world. Countries have been stimulated to think on development from perspectives that consider environment, economic and social aspects. One of the results of this concern is the set of 17 Sustainable Development Goals to be achieved by the countries until 2030. However, in order to implement an effective plan to meet these goals, it is necessary that governments, private sector and the civil society be aware about the local realities and needs of their countries. In this sense, indicators are an important tool to understand local contexts in order to create effective action plans.
The workshop aims to provide tools to analyze SDG indicators and to enable the trainers to address SDGs in their activities.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
- Use SDG Portal to access SDG Indicators of Brazilian cities;
- Analyze Indicators in order to formulate projects that meet local demands;
- Train apprentices on SDGs; and
- Apply the SDGs in their projects.
The workshop is divided in learning sessions that cover topics such as analysing tools to access and evaluate Indicators of Brazilian cities as well as to reflect on possibilities to improve them.
As the workshop aims to develop skills, emphasis will be placed on a short presentation about the SDGs that will be combined with interactive training tools, including access Indicators on SDG Portal, group discussion about the indicators.
This workshop targets trainers of the Non-Governmental Organization Elo Apoio Social Ambiental, which develops social projects aimed at education and insertion of young people in the labor market.
