SDG 17 - Partnerships for the Goals

The Sustainable Development Goals in aciton on Governros Island; sustainable cities, eco justice organizations, good health and well being, life on land, climate action, life below water. 

Governor's Island has many benefits, especially regarding nature and mental health.  Governor's Island is calm and beautiful because it's isolated from Manhattan, with abundant ecosystem services in action and conservation at work. Many things are happening on this island, such as attempts at reaching the Sustainable Development Goals. The New York Climate Exchange ( https://nyclimateexchange.org/ ) is working on bringing stakeholders together to develop practical solutions to emerging issues of our time. The New York Harbor School ( https://www.newyorkharborschool.org/ )and Earth Matter ( https://earthmatter.org/) are two top stakeholders engaged in substantial, hands-on, data-driven, social equity-driven approaches to tackling these issues. Earth Matter and one of the Career Technical Programs at New York Harbor School, Marine Affairs ( https://harborpolicy.org/ ), work tirelessly on managing and educating on the island's Zero Waste Mission.

Vi tror på mennesker! På den innovationskraft, der bor i at samles i stærke og aktive fællesskaber. Vi giver flere mulighed for at påvirke eget liv og det samfund, de er en del af. Vi bringer flere stemmer, perspektiver og ressourcer i spil, når vi skal udvikle løsninger og svar på de problemer, vi står overfor.

The UVic Map Shop is a community-campus initiative dedicated to collaborative place-based learning and mapping. Operated by the Department of Geography, the Map Shop's mission is to facilitate processes for community engagement, student learning, globally-relevant research, and sustainable community planning through participatory community mapping. This is achieved through engaging students, community members, Indigenous partners, and other participants both locally and globally in classroom-based and field-based courses, workshops, map-making, internship opportunities, scholarly research, publications, summits, and conference participation.

CIFAL Victoria delivers training activities and research that build on UVic's commitments to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). It connects the region with the global community and supports international knowledge-sharing and partnerships, with a focus on four key themes:

 Our community mapping students gathered at World Environment Day in June 2022 to display maps and ask for ideas and stories about connectivity in the Capital Region. We discussed pollinator corridors, food security, ecological connectivity and ways in which to improve these within the region. Residents contributed stories and sites that we recorded on maps.

Fristaden Christiania er et af Københavns mest besøgte turistattraktioner, og er et sted, som sætter lighed, frihed og fællesskab meget højt. Kom forbi og bliv grebet af stemningen.

DYRK Nørrebro is the first public rooftop garden in Copenhagen. The garden is situated on top of Blågård school and has been up and running since April 2011. The environment is the main focus of the rooftop garden as it provides a new innovative way of teaching citizens about the benefits of a green lifestyle and organic agricultural practices.

Bygningen BLOX har delt vandene i byen - men nu er den her, og forsøger at være ramme om en ny måde at bygge og bruge by på. Bygningen er åben og har offentlig adgang i de underste etager, hvor Dansk Arkitektur Center holder til. I midten er erhvervs- og byggeklyngen BLOXHUB, der er et udviklingsorienteret samarbejde på tværs af offentlige og private aktører om at skabe en bæredygtig byudvikling nationalt og internationalt, mens de øverste etager er lejeboliger. På den måde rummer bygningen også tre forskellige funktioner i samme fysiske struktur  - og den er så gennemsigtig, at boligerne kan kigge ind til erhvervsklyngen, der kan interagere med det offentlige rum i stueetagen. Forpladsen bruges ofte til større fællearrangementer, fx spisning, sport, udstillinger osv.

I det daglige bruges Pavillonen som åbent kontor og galleri. Vi er en broget forsamling af selvstændige indenfor især kunst, drama og kommunikation…og fælles for os er, at vi alle er iværksættere, som har ønsket at skabe et grønt og rummeligt mødested.
