At the heart of this strategy are the Global Goals weaved into each travel itinerary design to address both the environmental footprint and the economic empowerment of our business and operations. These 17 Global Goals are anchored to the UN's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. We currently have five trips that support eight goals, with room for expansion for future trips. Each partner to collaborate with The World Within Us contributes in the most impactful way possible to achieve the Global Goals by 2030.

WHY WE ALIGNED OUR GOALS WITH SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS
As global travelers, it is our responsibility to travel sustainably, ethically, and responsibly. The Sustainable Development Goals provide a globally accepted framework to mobilize citizens to lead with action into 2030 and beyond. It is important as travelers to have awareness of the social, political, and economic factors that impact a country. The Sustainable Development Goals allow us to focus on critical areas of action and explore how we as travelers can contribute to creating a more unified, sustainable, and prosperous world. The Citizens Agenda gives everyday people the opportunity to get involved in the Global Goals and accelerating the completion of the 2030 agenda.

It’s one of the most incredible to-do lists ever written with targets and indicators to measure our success - time to turn words into action!
