The Sustainable Development Council (SDC) is an international non-profit organisation that describes itself as an organisation focused on advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through youth empowerment, human rights advocacy, environmental sustainability, and social justice. Founded in 2019.

Key Initiatives and Programs

The Fourth Edition of the International Youth Forum’s final segment featured the Adoption of the IYF 4.0 Resolutions, chaired by Dr. Datchanamoorthy Ramu at the United Nations Conference Centre, Bangkok.

International Youth Forum on SDGs and Human Rights (IYF): SDC’s flagship Forum, the IYF convenes youth leaders, diplomats, and advocates worldwide to address global issues, particularly around sustainable development and human rights. The IYF has become a platform for youth-led solutions and international collaboration.[6][7][8] As a global platform dedicated to empowering young leaders, fostering dialogue, and promoting sustainable development through the active involvement of youth. The forum brings together youth advocates, policymakers, and experts from around the world to discuss pressing global issues, share innovative solutions, and drive actionable change. The IYF focuses on key areas such as Human Rights, Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), gender equality, climate action, and social justice. It aims to provide young people with the knowledge, resources, and networks needed to make a tangible impact in their communities and globally.
