LocationsWhy we’re rallying a generation.
Young leaders, with their commitments and aspirations, are transforming the world and driving progress on the SDGs to create a better future for all. The 17 Sustainable Development Goals—known as the Global Goals—are an urgent call to action worldwide to protect vulnerable populations and the planet by 2030. Achieving these goals requires the determination and vision of young people, their innovative spirit, and their ability to overcome obstacles.
With less than 6 years to achieve the Global Goals, we have to act!
From climate action to digital innovation, gender equality, and poverty alleviation, the Global Goals established by the United Nations in 2015 address critical global challenges. These goals offer a framework for world leaders to set the global agenda and work towards creating a better world by 2030.
About us
In 2019, Samsung MX and UNDP partnered to create the Samsung Global Goals App. A year after, Generation17 was launched, to elevate young people’s voices through digital tools. This innovative partnership builds on a shared commitment to the Global Goals and aims to spark meaningful change.
The Samsung Global Goals App
The Samsung Global Goals app empowers everyone to make a difference!
The Samsung Global Goals app makes it easier than ever to make an impact through technology. Born from the partnership with Samsung, the App is available for all Samsung Galaxy smartphones, tablets, or smartwatches. Users can learn about the Global Goals, their challenges, interconnectivity, and support them. They can transform their newfound knowledge into action by supporting the Goals through a direct donation or watching in-app ads that raise funds. The App allows all Samsung Galaxy users to make big difference with fast and simple solutions.
