What is sustainability? 

Sustainability can be described as the practice of keeping approaches of productiveness, both natural or human- made, through replacing resources without degrading or endangering herbal biotic structures.  

193 UN countries have agreed to transform our world by 2030, adopting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that aim to ensure no one is left behind, and everyone benefits from development efforts. A set of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are to be implemented and achieved in every country from the year 2016 to 2030. 

So, on this global platform, we are bringing you a similar opportunity to contribute to SDGs, this initiative sets out to reach a common goal, to bring innovation to the forefront of sustainable development. 

We are organizing Flight-SDG competitions, an opportunity for individuals, professionals, corporations and Institutions to showcase their skills and compete at a global level, while solving problems related to the UN SDGs.​ 

If you can: 

​Be innovative in offering value-added solutions  

Be sustainability-driven  

Be scalable: Prospects of international growth and potential to be applied in solving various socio-economic issues 

Then, Flight-SDGs are just for you!  

Innovation of all kinds is immensely welcome: new methods, governance models, processes, social impact initiatives, and techniques.  

Our FLIGHT-SDG competition features 4 SDGs-   

SDG 1 - NO POVERTY  

SDG 3 - GOOD HEALTH AND WELL-BEING  

SDG 5 - GENDER EQUALITY  

SDG 13- CLIMATE ACTION  

Each participant should select the SDG in which innovative ideas can be generated for the greatest impact.   

 Participate in the FLIGHT-SDG competition and submit your unique and innovative ideas for these 4 SDGs. The winner will receive 1000$ cash prize. Runner-ups will receive mentorship, tech support, and potential pilot project collaborations.

  Studying is absolutely necessary if you plan on succeeding in any educational environment! However, many of us never got a formal education on HOW to study! In fact, studying well and efficiently is an art all on its own! Many of us study so hard and curse the process the whole time, but it doesn't have to be like that!

Instead of falling into this cycle, space out your studying and set times/days you will...

Into the Unknown: Teaching During a Pandemic Contributed to the HIVE by:  Josephine Scavuzzo Over and over again, the media has reported that these are unprecedented times. The CoVid19 crisis is having a profound effect on all of us as citizens of this world. In order to prevent the spread of the virus, our education system has been shut down. According to UNESCO, these nationwide closures are impacting over 90% of the world’s student population. In many districts, there are contingency plans, technology rollouts, and resource staff to support learners and their families. However, there is no consistency across local school boards and districts, much less between countries around the world. As a 23-year veteran teacher in Toronto, my only remote learning experience has been my own.
