Become a Real-Life SUPERHERO!Join the “SDG-Hero Challenge”!﻿
Do you know what the SDGs are and who created them? Do you know until what year they run and which goals are most important for Curaçao? We challenge you to earn digital badges and prove that you’re a true ‘SDG-hero’!
﻿
Maybe you’ve come across the English acronym “SDGs” before (you pronounce it as es-dee-jees). SDG stands for “Sustainable Development Goals.” These are 17 goals aimed at making the world a better place, and they extend until 2030. These goals were agreed upon by all the countries that are part of the United Nations (UN), including Curaçao as part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
﻿
These goals were established in 2015, and everyone worldwide, even in non-UN member countries, could contribute ideas on their content. Eventually, 17 goals were chosen by the UN, focusing on peace and security, economic development, environmental protection, and the complete eradication of poverty and hunger. Each goal was given specific “targets” — a total of 169 — outlining what needs to be achieved to meet the SDGs.
﻿
The SDG's and CuraçaoCuraçao has chosen 6 SDGs to focus on:
SDG1: No Poverty
SDG3: Good Health and Well-being
SDG4: Quality Education
SDG7: Affordable and Clean Energy
SDG8: Decent Work and Economic Growth
SDG14: Life Below Water
In December 2018, Curaçao drafted a “Roadmap for SDG Implementation,” outlining these goals and what we need to do to achieve them. One of the action points in the report is the “SDG Action Week,” of which this “SDG-Hero” challenge is a part.
﻿
As a Small Island nation, the SDG's have special meaning for Curaçao. To understand why, check out this video, that was made by the UN for the opening of the SIDS conference earlier this year.

SDG 1: END POVERTYThe United Nations call this first "Sustainable Development Goal" the most important one. The target is that NOBODYwill live in extreme poverty in 2030. 
﻿
Extreme povertye means that you earn less than 1.90 US$ per day. 
﻿
It is the job of the government to make sure that no one ends up in extreme poverty, for example because they are unemployed, have problems with their health or some sort of disaster or a war happened where they live. 
﻿
Everybody has the right to work, to access technology, to have access to financial services etcetera.
﻿
﻿
﻿
SDG 1 in Curaçao: Curaçao has started projects to lower poverty and support vulnerable groups. The ‘Curaçao Social Development Agenda’ focuses on people, neighborhoods, and work. Setting up neighborhood ‘houses’ has made it easier for people to get services, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, which showed how important local help systems are.
