We propose this series of 9 podcasts so that you can discover how the SDGs establish a common framework to address the main challenges facing humanity from a global and cross-cutting perspective, in which the active involvement of people and companies, among many other actors, is required. You will see that water plays a fundamental role in the achievement of all the SDGs.
