| Events

M. Stacy Hanrahan, the representative for the Congregation of Notre Dame (CND) to the United Nations, will be at UPEI to give a presentation on achieving the Sustainable Development Goals of the UN’s 2030 Development Agenda. Her talk will explore the implications and challenges that fulfilling the agenda will require. Hanrahan says the agenda is nothing less than “an awakening of our human species to our relationships, responsibilities, and interdependencies with all created life and to the earth."

Her presentation, “The International Sustainable Development Agenda for 2030: All Creation is on tip toe, to see the human species come into its own,” begins at 1:30 pm, Friday, March 24 in the Alex H. MacKinnon Auditorium, room 242, of UPEI’s Don and Marion McDougall Hall.
