Culture in the SDG Outcome Document: Progress made, but important steps remain ahead (CultureGoal2015, 2015)

Since 2013, the global campaign "The Future We Want Includes Culture", led by several regional and global civil society organizations, has advocated for the inclusion of culture in the SDG Outcome Document. The campaign’s Declaration, which was translated into eight languages, was endorsed by over 900 organizations and thousands of citizens from 120 countries, proof of its universal appeal.

As global leaders prepare to adopt the SDG Outcome Document, members of the "The Future We Want Includes Culture" campaign present this communiqué in order to convey their observations.
