Why Join Our UN SDG Project?

I joined the project because I find the idea innovative and it matches my ambitions to make the world a better place. The teamwork on sustainability is always more efficient, especially in SHERPA Institute which offers a high level of coworking and coaching. The book will make the change for corporations and thus for the world towards the 17 SDGs. I do believe that we are changemakers, we need to work together, and that’s what we are doing with a lot of positive energy and great interaction. I do what I love.
