It is evident that women go to great lengths in order to pursue their education and professional careers.

Salma Khalifa understands too well this reality of juggling work and family. A mother to a ...

2022年6月・広島 - 持続可能な開発目標（SDGs）との関連付けを探すだけに終わらず、SDGsの視点を生かして自分たちの方針や政策をアップデートすることが求められている、と慶應義塾大学大学院特任助教で国連大学サステイナビリティ高等研究所研究員の高木超さんは語る。
2020年から国連ユニタール広島青少年大使プログラムの講師を務め、SDGsに関するアドバイザーとしても活躍する高木さん。2030年までに目標を達成するためのSDGsの「行動の10年」に入り、日本でもかつてない機運を感じる一方、まだ「知る」段階を目指したプログラムが多いとも思う。
