How Enago Academy Contributes to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Through Empowering Researchers
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by 2030. Among the 17 SDGs, Quality Education (Goal 4) and Reduced Inequalities (Goal 10) are particularly relevant to the contributions made by institutions like Enago Academy. Enago Academy’s multifaceted approach includes not only training and resources but also active dialogue through diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives and the publication of critical research and thought leadership content. Here’s how these efforts align with the SDGs:
