Reflecting on 2025 for the SDSN: Progress, Partnerships, and Impact

As 2025 draws to a close, the SDSN extends its gratitude for your steadfast support in advancing science-based solutions for the Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement. Together, we continue to make meaningful gains on the world’s most acute challenges.

Our Work

As the world's largest knowledge network for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) works under the auspices of the UN Secretary-General to mobilize the world's universities, think tanks, and national laboratories to identify and develop global and local solutions for action on the world's most critical sustainable development challenges. We operate at the intersection between science, policy, and development practice to promote the SDGs and the Paris Agreement through education, research, policy analysis, and global cooperation.
