About Inner Development Goals
In 2015, the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provided a comprehensive plan for a sustainable world by 2030.
However, progress is not happening fast enough, and we urgently need to increase our collective abilities to face and work effectively with complex challenges.
This is why we are co-creating the Inner Development Goals (#IDG) - a non-profit, open-source initiative committed to fostering inner development towards more sustainable futures. We research, collect, and communicate science-based skills and qualities that help us to live purposeful, sustainable, and productive lives.
