With only eight years left, we don’t have time for the wrong script. Time for collective action to #flipthescript.
Everyone has the power in their hands to reimagine the world, catalyse positive change and achieve the SDGs through recommitments, rethinking, and changing prevailing narratives.
Global challenges can only be solved when we all work together. That’s why we must flip the script to show that change is possible. We must re-imagine the narrative and turn apathy into action. Turn fear into hope. Division into togetherness.
RELEVANT SUSTAINABLE GOALS
#FLIPTHESCRIPT
UNSDG Action Campaign launches #FlipTheScript: The campaign calls on everyone to tell a new story that shapes a new reality. Only eight years to go to make the SDGs happen by 2030. Time to flip apathy into action, fear into hope, divisiveness into togetherness!
Flip the Script Campaign is an open-source campaign that aims to highlight different approaches and actions for a healthy, green and just future. It calls on everyone to keep challenging what they think, to keep pushing what they believe and what they can do. To seize the opportunities and solutions that exist and invest in them to solve our global challenges.
Everyone has the power in their hands to reimagine the world, catalyze positive change and achieve the SDGs through recommitments, rethinking, and changing prevailing narratives.
To #FlipTheScript, the UN SDG Action Campaign calls for a journey of advocacy and action. The very first step is changing how we talk to each other and work together to find solutions. In doing so, we will inspire others to do the same. Advocating to #FlipTheScript, means rethinking, recalibrating and reimagining our societies and economies to achieve the SDGs. Taking action means behavior change at all levels, transforming the way we do things to implement the change we want to see.
