Sustainable Development Goals

What Are the SDGs?

On 25 September 2015, world leaders from all sectors convened to adopt the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). They represent the global community’s next step in ending poverty, fighting inequality and injustice, and tackling climate change for the next 15 years. Here at B1G1, we feel motivated by these collective indicators too. There is now a greater call for businesses to take much-needed actions.

B1G1's Response

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals have provided us with a fresh way of looking at our projects. Each of the 400+ projects listed on B1G1 contributes to one or more SDGs. This categorization method allows you to discover causes that are close to your heart in the global context. Not only that, you can display the impacts you created based on the SDGs too. That way, you can see exactly how your giving is contributing to the goals embraced by businesses and organizations around the world.

Sustainable Development Goal (SGD) Widgets

B1G1 categorizes every giving and impact created using the Sustainable Development Goals. These 17 goals represent the global community’s next step in ending poverty, fighting inequality and injustice, and tackling climate change by 2030. You can choose the Goals that resonate most with your business and embed them on your own website. And every time you give through B1G1, the impacts you create towards each SDG are automatically counted and updated live on your SDG widget, just like the impact counter widget.

How the SGD Widgets Work

There are 3 ways to proudly display your impacts for your favourite Sustainable Development Goals with the big, colourful icons. Or show your business’ full impact breakdown with the small icons. And if you already mention your contribution to the Goals on your website in a compelling manner, simply use the scrolling impact numbers to add that ‘wow’ factor.
