Week 1 - Introduction to the Sustainable Development

 Assalamualaikum and Hi everyone !

For the first class, we are being taught the overview of sustainable development. Sustainable is a social goal for people to co-exist on Earth over a long time. Sustainable development is defined as development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Basically, the concept of sustainability is on how to lead a good life. This sustainability closely relates to the 5Ps which are people, planet, prosperity, peace and partnership. Prosperty is on how to get rid of selfishness where the people are not being greedy. We also learned that before SDGs existed, there were MDGs which consisted of 8 goals only unlike SDGs 17 goals. It only have 8 goals because it does not include issues of the hungerness, education and more. 

Our Professor also explained to us about our assessments. There will be a quiz, written reflective journal, essay on SDG, group SDG project and the presentation of the project. We end our class by having a photography session with the section members.
