Individuals Role in achieving SDGs

Assalamualaikum everyone, today i would like to talk about individual role in achieving SDGs, As we all know SDGs is 17 global goals that is essential to be achieve in 2030. So, since it is global goals of course everyone play important role especially as individuals. Therefore this is some of suggestion for individual and my role in achieving SDGs.

1. Educate myself and others

Since I heard about SDGs in UNGS for the first time, I would like to educate more about SDGs and tell my friends and family about it. It is essential for everyone surround you to know about this goals since this goals cannot be achieve alone. I think awareness about SDGs is enough for everyone to contribute in it. Therefore, small conversations can turn into some actions because everyone aware to make SDGs goals come true.

                                                                                    2. Promoting SDGs in Social Media

Nowadays, there is pile of social media applications that connecting people around the world. So, together we can take this opportunity to promoting SDGs as individual. Moreover, actually there is some blogs that covering the SDGs to create awareness to others such as Fakequity that blogs about racial equity, Nonprofit with Balls that is an irreverent blog highlighting effective nonprofit workers, systems, and organizations.So lets take this platform to succeed the SDGs together!

 

3. Live a life Efficiently

Everyone knows that life efficiency is a good practices to be a better humans but not everyone can do it. What is meant by efficiently is with no waste in time, money and resources. Unnecessary thing has been removed and only useful things remains. This practices I have been in to it for these recent years to become more efficient. Although it is not easy but small steps today could being the biggest steps in your life. For example in living a life efficiently is taking care of health and live with energy efficiently. Thus, as individual, we play major part in achieving SDGs because everyone is counted for each goals.   

                              

                                                                                          4. Recycle

Recycling is important process  to collecting and processing materials that would otherwise be thrown away as trash and turning them into useful new products. In my Form 6, I have been assigned to collect all the bottles in our block every day and recycle it at its place. To be honest, it is tired to collect them all but you will get satisfied after done it and of course you will get some money after recycle them. So to be more precise about SDGs, recycle is important to preserve resources that we had and use them in future without any waste.
 

By the way, below is my ecological footprint that I calculated it from http://www.footprintcalculator.org/ and it is worse than I thought actually, so need to change for better future I guess 😳.

 

To conclude, as individuals that want to achieve SDGs by 2030, it is essential for each everyone of us to do something because we play big part of it. So lets start with small things first as we all could and proceed to next big things. Thats all from me guys and thank you for spending your time to read. Assalamualaikum and happy fasting 😊.
