SDG Forum, Federaal instituut voor Duurzame Ontwikkeling (FIDO) | Flagey, Brussels [BE]

The SDG Forum brings the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) from, for and by everyone. As the first multi-stakeholder forum on the SDGs in the Benelux, the SDG Forum engages as many sectors as possible and offers a wide range of workshops, plenary sessions and panel debates. The SDG Forum is organized by 20 partner organizations coming from all corners of the sustainable development sector. Together, we aim to connect unusual suspects. The SDG Forum gives policy makers, businesses, NGOs and academics the opportunity to meet and exchange SDG ideas and solutions.

I am happy to contribute to the Forum with a major photo exhibition.
