HKUST Global Days of Changemaking 2020

Make a Pledge to Support SDGs

In our everyday life, we can take small steps to create the changes we want in our communities. While not everyone of us can contribute through service opportunities, you can advocate for causes close to your heart at your own pace.

The "Make a Pledge to Support SDGs" event engages all HKUST members, including students and alumni who are currently overseas to take actions to support the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) - the world’s to-do list to end poverty, reduce inequalities and tackle climate change. Together, we can create a sustainable world with simple actions every day.

Join us and pledge your support to create the change you want via the online pledge form. HKUST members who have completed the pledge form by 15 May 2020 (Fri) can get a sports towel as an encouragement.

How does the pledge work?

	Choose the SDGs that are important to you then tell us the action you will take to help achieve the goals in the Online pledge form
	Receive a sports towel* after pledging your changemaking action
