The SDG/2063 Impact Hub

The SDG/2063 Impact Hub is located at the Centre for Collaboration in Africa at SU International. The Hub was established in late 2021, for the promotion of the United Nations’ 2030 Agenda and its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as well as the Africa Union’s Agenda 2063 and its Goals and Aspirations for a peaceful and prosperous Africa.
Both the AU and UN Sustainable Development Agenda inform SU’s Vision 2040.

Sustainable Development Annual Report 2021/2022 for The Africa we Want

In March this year, the Hub released our first annual Sustainable Development publication with SU’s contributions to the Sustainable Development Challenges we face as a global community.

We are proud to have captured stories of partnership and collaboration, stories of innovation and custodianship and most importantly, stories of impact and sustainability. You can find it on our website at https://susdev.sun.ac.za/ and download it here.
