The United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) were constructed to address global crises including poverty, inequality, climate, environmental degradation, and peace and justice. Daisaku Ikeda's 2022 Peace Proposal also addresses the most pressing global issues. Selecting an area of interest from the Peace Proposal and framing it within the SDGs helps you select the Wikipedia article you will edit. Through your contribution of knowledge to the Wikipedia audience, you accelerate progress on the SDGs.

In assigned small groups, conduct a substantive Wikipedia article edit to an important SDG/Peace Proposal-related article.
