Keywords:
Community engagement project, Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Civil Society, University, UFPB, International RelationsAbstract
This paper presents an experience in development at the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB), which aims to contribute to the implementation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in a specific way. This is done through the execution of a community engagement project focused on the participation and contribution of the civil society in the implementation of the SDGs, focusing especially on the role of the Universities. The project, which is under development since the beginning of 2015, seeks to contribute to the dissemination of the SDGs agenda among civil society organizations in the Brazilian Northeast, as well as to train policymakers and multipliers of the agenda in various spaces and institutions in the region. The University has enormous potential to contribute to the local appropriation of the agenda, formulation of public policies and development of social technologies for the implementation of SDGs
