In September 2015, the "UN Sustainable Development Summit" was held at the UN General Assembly, where the "Transforming our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development" was adopted with the participation of prime ministers from over 150 member states.

The "SDGs" (Sustainable Development Goals), known as the "Global Goals," refer to plans such as reducing hunger, fighting inequality, and cleaning up the planet.

Following this, efforts are underway across various sectors to achieve the SDGs by 2030.

Galaxy is implementing an initiative that allows individuals to participate in SDGs by installing the Global Goals application.

Galaxy's SDG App for Smartphones: "THE GLOBAL GOALS"

The pre-installed model is the flagship "Galaxy Note10+," released in October 2019.

This app allows users to deepen their understanding of the 17 SDGs. It also provides access to statistics and progress updates related to the goals.

The app itself is free, and by simply viewing in-app advertisements, funds are donated to selected goals. Of course, it is also possible to make direct donations of any amount.

What's interesting is the feature that allows messages to be displayed on the smartphone's lock screen.

When this feature is turned on, powerful messages from influential historical leaders will be displayed in the Global Goals app every time you access your smartphone.

SDGs require the participation of each individual. This app, which engages individuals, is a tool that allows for easy contribution to the future.
