United in Action: UN Day SDG Walkathon 2023 in Suriname
To celebrate the United Nations Day celebrated on 24 October, the United Nations in Suriname organized the SDG Walkathon
The SDG Walkathon attracted more than 300 participants representing UN agencies, government partners, NGOs, diplomatic community and youth.
This was an opportunity for UN agencies to showcase their vital work in Suriname, offering participants a chance to learn about the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the ongoing efforts to achieve them. Along the 5km path of the walkathon, a number of attractions were waiting for its participants including games, quizzes and photo opportunities. The impressive turnout demonstrates a genuine public interest in sustainability and understanding the global goals and their significance for Suriname's future.
