“We know more than you think we do”.
Raising voices of marginalised communities on the delivery of the Sustainable Development Goals
“I would tell people in power to listen to our ideas and take Beriously! Stop ignoring Appreciate the young people, we know more than you think we do.”
The SDGs aim to leave no one behind, reaching those farthest behind first. For this to happen, people who are marginalised- including women, young people, people with disabilities and people from ethnic and religious minorities-must participate. They are best placed to know what their problems are and what might be workable solution. Moreover, the process of participation can itself create solidarity and get people into a position where they can start to make the changes they want.
