  • The United Nations and ASAN Radio start a year-long project which aims to promote the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Azerbaijan.

The project includes a 20-minute weekly programme, called Global Goals, and a two-minute daily programme explaining the essence of each SDG.

Global Goals programmes, which will be broadcast on Mondays at 18.20, will feature representatives of the UN agencies in Azerbaijan, government agencies, civil society, as well as donors and beneficiaries. They will focus on activities carried out by international organisations and local authorities towards the implementation of the 2030 Agenda.

Two-minute daily programmes will explain to listeners each goal in simple language and will provide suggestions on how every person can contribute to their achievement.

ASAN Radio is a public radio station, which broadcasts on 100 FM. This radio station is part of the State Agency for Public Service and Social Innovations under the President of Azerbaijan and concentrates on awareness-raising programmes.
