ABOUT THE SUMMIT

Great aspirations deserve great attention. Especially if what’s at stake is no less than the future of our planet. Bearing that in mind, the Association of Social Responsibility, the largest initiative for corporate social responsibility and the UN Sustainable Development Goals in Czechia, in association with DVTV.cz are holding the 2022 Global Goals Summit.

You will meet inspiring personalities from the world of business, politics, the nonprofit sector, and public administration. You will discover innovative approaches, see examples of good practices, and individuals who transform the world into a better place will speak about their experience with contributing to the fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Perhaps you are one of them. Perhaps you are still searching for your place in the world of sustainability. Either way, you are welcome, as is everyone who takes sustainability with the utmost seriousness.

Count me in

The Global Goals Summit will be held in the National Museum in Prague, Czech Republic on October 13, 2022. The museum is a gorgeous venue that breathes ancient history. Likewise, the times gone by provide the symbol of this year’s summit – Plateosaurus, the most common European dinosaur in ancient times. The summit will present a model Pla(s)teosaurus made from recycled plastic by 3D printers from various part of Czechia. More information.

Why Pla(s)teosaurus? Because he knows what could happen and has a message for us:
DON’T CHOOSE EXTINCTION!!!

The 2022 Global Goals Summit is part of the Sixth Season of the SDG Awards, a prestigious event during which awards are bestowed for fulfilling the UN Sustainable Development Goals in Czechia.

Tickets

SUSTAINABLE IN EVERY RESPECT

The Global Goals Summit aims to leave a large footprint in regard to offering ideas and inspiration, but have as little environmental impact as possible.

We are reducing CO2 production in preparation and increasing impact by planting trees in partnership with Plant-for-the-Planet on the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico.

Vegetarian and vegan zero waste menu from The White Circus from rescued local food from Rohlík.cz supplemented with a plant-based meat alternative from The Vegetarian Butcher.

Every person attending the Global Goals Summit will receive a cup made from recycled coffee dregs. Thanks to the cup, you will be able to enjoy the taste of coffee and other drinks during the event, and for a long time to come – always in a sustainable fashion.

Coming to the Global Goals Summit using a sustainable means of transport is easy. The National Museum is a step away from the Metro, the Central Station, and a streetcar stop. Likewise, you can use a (shared) bicycle, scooter, or come on foot.

Venue

The National Museum is a symbol of history, the home of unique collections and extinct species. The Global Goals Summit will be held in this exceptional building to remind us of the thin line between life and the prospect of extinction.
