Watch the UN SDG Media Zone live in Davos starting at 10:00 a.m. CET/4:00 a.m. ET on 21 January.

The UN SDG Media Zone convenes Government leaders, CEOs, UN heads, activists, influencers and entrepreneurs for short panel discussions on topics related to the Sustainable Development Goals broadcast live on UN Web TV to a global audience.

Using the power and reach of social media, the SDG Media Zone seeks to take important conversations out of the policy sphere bubble of exclusive high-profile events and into the public domain by engaging a global online audience.

To mark its 20th anniversary, the UN Global Compact, in partnership with the UN Department of Global Communications, will bring the SDG Media Zone to Davos for the first time during the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting.

Topics to be discussed include principled business, climate action, gender equality, sustainable finance, global health, employee purpose and many more issues directly related to the achievement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development which was unanimously agreed by 193 UN member states in September 2015.

The UN SDG Media Zone programme in Davos will run from Tuesday 21 January to Thursday 23 January at Promenade 80 (opposite the Belvedere Hotel).

If you can't be there with us in person, the sessions (which will be conducted in English) will be live-streamed on UN Web TV. Follow along on Twitter and Instagram and join the conversation on social media using #SDGLive. Photos will be available on this page.
