GAHP and the SDGs
Launch of the #WeCanFightPollution SDG Campaign
In the lead up to the release of the Commission on Pollution and Health report in The Lancet, we launched a social media campaign connecting pollution and the SDGs. Please see the campaign details below and read more about the critical link on the GAHP Blog. We thank all GAHP members who participated in this campaign and amplified the message! Feel free to share this page with like-minded organizations to increase awareness and participation
It’s time to increase our advocacy efforts and raise awareness of the real human cost of pollution. #WeCanFightPollution SDG Campaign to demonstrate links between pollution and the #GlobalGoals.
We created custom social media images corresponding to each of the 17 #GlobalGoals. You can download versions for Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. The advocacy schedule for the campaign can be found below.
Each week a post or message about pollution and the SDGs was published on participants own social media networks.
To make the campaign as easy as possible, sample posts were provided to get participants started! Just add a download graphic to your Facebook post, tweet, or instagram. Each post below links to a blog on the GAHP website that further explains the link between pollution and the SDGs.
