On March 3, 2020, USC IIGH hosted Erin Bromaghim, Conrad N. Hilton Foundation Fellow on the Sustainable Development Goals Office of the Mayor of Los Angeles, Eric Garcetti, for a presentation titled “Localizing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals in the City of Los Angeles.”

Erin joined us to discuss the Los Angeles regions history of being at the forefront of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) movement and the city-wide efforts to align developing plans and goals to achieve SDG targets. These goals aim to address social inequality, economic growth, environmental preservation, among other global development challenges. Erin’s presentation will provide an overview of LA’s SDG projects while assessing the present and future plans to move these goals forward.
