Today we haven’t chosen an easy topic, but it's an extremely vital one: Mental Health.

We are grateful that this topic is not new, as over the past few years mental health is slowly coming into the everyday conversation (from workplaces addressing it, to parents and children communicating about it more, to governments increasing funding in it). However, we want to use this platform to expand the dialogue and also dive into how mental health is fundamental to achieving the UN's sustainable development goals (SDGs) and how it intersects with sustainability as a whole.

On today’s episode we will discuss:

A quick refresher on the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Connections between mental health and the SDGs
How mental health is essential in achieving the SDGs and vice versa

Check out the SDGs at https://sdgs.un.org/goals.
