The role of the media in delivering the SDGs is a quite an action that needs redefining process which is an independent one with a lot of physical measures. It identifies five key roles: channeling information flow; acting as a watchdog ensuring proper monitoring and accountability; acting as an enabler of a “culture of peace”; upholding marginalized voices; and facilitating the localizing of the SDGs before and after 2030.

The Sustainable Development Goals or Global Goals are a collection of 17 interlinked global goals designed to be a “blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all”. The SDGs were set up in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly and is intended to be achieved by 2030.

The World Federation of Environmental and Intercultural Journalists (WOFEJ) is promoting the SDGs implementation without condition in cooperation with local, regional and international education and civil society institutions and organizations including the UN-agencies and donors.
