The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), are a call to action to end poverty, protect our planet, and ensure all people live in a culture of peace and economic prosperity.

Rural women impacting change

We invited rural women from our global networks to send us videos made by using their mobile phones and answering our questions on how using media helped them with their advocacy and outreach to support women in their communities.

We were proud to share this video two months later during the UN Commission on the Status of Women.
