For this Humanities term, we were focused on the 17 SDGs. For each unit we had to write a different essay focusing on a specific SDG. For my first SDG essay, I wrote on SDG #16 which was Peace and Justice. Equality plays a huge role in our society so I decided to talk about it. I described the differences in different countries, how different countries are supposed to focus on specific issues such as violence. Second unit, we focused on gender inequality. We were able to meet with someone from the Women's Health Center, where they discussed issues on women's healthcare. For the last unit, we were supposed to tie both issues like SDG #16 and domestic behaviors, and figuring which SDG combines both essays.
All in all, these SDGs really taught me about how our world is changing. Although, before some people living in the U.S. thought after the presidential election everything will change for the worse. But, we have these organizations and foundations like the U.N. that will make society better by creating these SDGs.
