SDSN Youth in Northern Europe

“Empowering youth to create sustainable solutions.”

SDSN Youth in Northern Europe was launched in January 2017 as a regional network within the global SDSN Youth network. Our aim is to localize SDSN Youth’s global vision of empowering youth to create sustainable solutions. We do this by connecting and mobilizing the region’s youth actors from civil society, academia and the private sector, supporting their engagement and contribution to the implementation of the SDGs and educating the region’s young population about the SDGs.

Color the world!

The SDG Coloring Book includes illustrations that can be used by anyone who wishes to learn more about the Sustainable Development Goals – children, youngsters or adults. Use your creativity and come up with your own version of the illustrations.

When you are finished coloring, why not share it with others? This could help spread the word about the Sustainable Development Goals – to teach others, to inspire for a better future and to fill the world with colors.
