Welcome to the Youth Committee Page of the first international academic conference
on the Sustainable Development Goals "Why It Matters". Each voice, wherever they may
be, is relevant and can answer the question Why It Matters, relating to the 2030 Sustainable
Development Agenda. Your support and suggestions are important to us and so we have
created a youth committee representing local, domestic, and international subcommittees.
