[U04-06] Promotion of SDGs activity by JpGU

*Yukihiro Takahashi1 (1.Department of Cosmosciences, Graduate School of Science, Hokkaido University)

Keywords:SDGs, task force

The United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have come to be widely recognized as a common goal for humankind, involving the international community. Earth and planetary science should play a major academic role in the realization of the SDGs. It is also important for JpGU itself to develop activities in line with the spirit of the SDGs. Furthermore, as an academic society that actively promotes the SDGs and contributes to the SDGs, we can expect to obtain support from companies that are not directly related to earth and planetary sciences. Against this background, JpGU has launched the SDGs Promotion Task Force. We will introduce its purpose and activity policy.
