"Faced with the Climate crises and overwhelming inequality, committed people, often in small NGOs are working all over the world to achieve the SDGs but who knows of their work?
ConnectAID is the critical link to amplify these inspiring stories and to enable the whole global effort for the SDGs to be greater than the sum of the parts."

"There is urgency in connecting the dots and driving the Sustainable Development agenda forward.

In this regard, ConnectAID stands as a powerful platform, meant to facilitate and unite our collective efforts.

The need of the hour is to swiftly transition from intention to action, for we have no Planet B, and no business to be done on a half dead planet !"

"I still believe that the world is a generous place and it is possible to live life 'on purpose"; but too often we get wrapped up in our own individual effort and forget that we can do so much more when we are "connected". That is what ConnectAID is all about.

As the proverb goes: " If you want to go quickly go alone, if you want to go far, go together..."
