International Week 2025 invites you to meaningfully engage with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through inspiring lectures, insightful panels and collaborative discussions.

Adopted in 2015, the SDGs call on governments and civil society worldwide to address the world's most pressing issues, from poverty and education to health and the environment.

Open to the University of Alberta and the local community, I-Week's free events offer various ways to learn about the 17 SDGs and how to engage effectively with them.

Five days, 10 events to explore!

Attend the U of A's annual International Week to learn about the Sustainable Development Goals and get inspired to work together for a better world.
