- Oktatás célja
- Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 11 is about making “cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable.” It is one of the 17 SDGs in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Sustainability is a growing concern for all of us, thus raising awareness, educating people of the problem points and possible best practices is important. The film industry might do a lot in supporting SDGs to reduce social and gender inequality, water shortage or combat other extreme climate events, making students aware of these issues by the help of films might enable future teachers and scholars to cope with these problems.
