This photo and video exhibition is part of Southern Voice’s flagship report ‘State of the Sustainable Development Goals’ (SVSS). The study showcases research produced on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically SDG 4 (quality education), SDG 8 (decent employment) and SDG 7 (clean energy), in six countries: Peru, Bolivia, Nigeria, Ghana, Sri Lanka and India.
As a collaborative initiative, the flagship report compiles a broad range of perspectives that are usually missing from international debates. It explores who is being ‘left behind’, as well as the complex, and often unexpected, synergies and trade-offs between the SDGs. The aim is to enrich the discussions on the SDGs and level the playing field with new voices from the Global South. We know that there is a knowledge gap, and we want to fill it.
Southern Voice is a think tank network of the Global South, focusing on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It envisions a world in which power has been realigned between countries, in particular between the Northern and Southern hemispheres.
The exhibition is a collaboration among six research organisations in the Global South:
Latin America: GRADE Peru and ARU Foundation Bolivia; Africa: CSEA Nigeria and ISSER Ghana; Asia: PAC India and CEPA Sri Lanka.
