We all know about the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, but how do they apply to us as individuals?

Examples of the SDGs in action can be seen in our everyday life... if you know where to look!

To get involved, all you need to do is snap a photo, write a few sentences about which SDG it applies to and why, email it through to the Green Programs Assistant at jasmine.palmer@uq.edu.au and you’ll win a block of fair trade chocolate!

Feel free to share the image to your social media and tag @uqsustainability!

A sustainability popup will be organised so you can come along and grab your chocolate after the competition closes!

Running from the 15th of August to the 19th of September, this competition is for staff involved in the Green Labs and Green Office programs.
