The Global Goals Summit is Durham University’s signature youth summit, a local convening of young people who want to make a true impact on the global challenges we all face. The overall aim is to find new ways to mobilise, empower, and inspire young people to take action toward the Sustainable Development Goals. This year's Summit will focus upon SDGs 5 and 10 - gender equality and reduced inequalities.
Students from Durham University alongside local sixth-formers will have the opportunity to come together to learn more about the Sustainable Development Goals, hear from experts and changemakers in the field and work on practical solutions through the Game Changer activities. The winners of the Game Changer activity will be presented with their award at the Durham Global Awards ceremony on 7 March 2025!
