Global Goals has breathed new life into the Spice Girls’ iconic song “Wannabe”, creating a campaign that’s a call to action before the U.N. Sustainable Development Summit in September this year. People are asked to tag themselves with the #WhatIReallyReallyWant hashtag via social media and share images of their messages. Via the Global Goals website:
In 2015 world leaders promised to put girls and women first when they signed up to the Sustainable Development Goals to end poverty, fix climate change and tackle inequalities.
Girls and women are disproportionately affected by these challenges and are key to building resilient communities to withstand them.
That’s why we need to ensure World Leaders and the Secretary General of the United Nations listen to the voices of girls and women and put them first in policies and plans.
2016 is our chance to use our collective power and tell world leaders what we really really want for girls and women.
If you make the noise, we’ll get your message to world leaders at the UN in September. The Global Goals will only ever be achieved if governments, businesses, communities and YOU invest in girls and women.
So far celebrities have jumped in on the action, including the Spice Girls themselves, and people like Jamie Oliver.
