Luminous Listening in Troubled Times: SDG0 - the SDG of Love and Joy
Show Notes

In this episode, Charlotte Dufour introduces SDG0, the Sustainable Development Goal of Love and Joy, the ultimate goal and activator of the 17 SDGs that compose Agenda 2030.

Reflecting on the meaning of this SDG, she explores what it is that brings us love and joy, in a world characterised by impermanence and relativity. She sees this SDG as an invitation to focus on the essentials, in our efforts to achieve the 17 SDGs: not just what we do, but how we do it. Not just how much we achieve, but how much we give and grow, as we try to reach these goals.
