The SDG Studio was an inspiring space during the 2018 Global Festival of Action.

We are proud to present the programme for the SDG Studio of this year’s SDG Global Festival of Action!

The SDG Studio is a live stage where dynamic discussions, cross-generational dialogues, webcast interviews and inspiring talks showcasing change-making initiatives and revolutionary solutions to key global challenges will be taking place.

With over 30 sessions in 5 different formats, more than 40 speakers, the SDG Studio will be a lively stage within the Festival, and, more importantly, it will be a space for members of the SDG community to share their ideas and insights to an audience beyond the walls of the World Conference Centre.

The live stage is broadcast on UN Web TV and provides the platform for participants, speakers and key stakeholders to amplify their stories and breakthroughs with global audiences during and beyond the Festival.

This stage is aimed at bringing the Festival to virtual audiences through live streaming, webcasting, and social media.

Take a look at the talks and sessions that we have prepared!
