People and Planet: Faith in the 2030 Agenda

In March 2020, Sida, UNEP, SIWI, and the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency convened actors from around the world in a digital, flight-free conference entitled People and Planet: Faith in the 2030 Agenda. The event sought to elevate and enrich partnerships towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a focus on strengthening linkages and collaborations with faith-based and indigenous knowledge, networks, and resources. This policy brief discusses the role of faith communities in environmental action and highlights the ways forward as direct results of the discussions of the themes of this important event.
