The issue that i choose is Gender Equality. Though it is been said that that we entered post-feminist era still many women are subjugated to follow the rules made by either their father or her husband.

I have chosen the 12: Responsible consumption and production because according to the (UNDP), by Achieving economic growth and sustainable development requires that we urgently reduce our ecological footprint by changing the way we produce and consume goods and resources, And based on the facts and figure 1.3 billion tones of food is wasted every year, while almost 2 billion people go hungry or undernourished, The food sector accounts for around 22 percent of total greenhouse gas emissions, largely from the conversion of forests into farmland, Globally, 2 billion people are overweight or obese and addition Only 3 percent of the world’s water is fresh (drinkable), and humans are using it faster than nature can replenish it, and also according to the If people everywhere switched to energy efficient lightbulbs, the world would save US$120 billion annually, and lastly based on their facts that  One-fifth of the world’s final energy consumption in 2013 was from renewable sources.

Gender equality/ SDG 5 is the topic I´m most interested in. Why? Because gender topica are the topics I focussed in my university studies, as well as in my jobs in youth work. Starting my professional career in the youth center till me becomin project leader the issue of gender equality is a topic that still has a big influence. Especially gender equality in work is a big topic and how to fight it.

I have chosen the issue of responsible consumption and production as we are now living in the overconsuming world, advertisements are everywhere and encourage people to buy goods all the time without thinking about problems that come with it. It's really important to stay conscious and give our money to the companies that not only try to earn money, but to the companies that do fair, sustainable business, have values and honest with their consumers.

I choose 12-Responsible consumption and production. I have discovered we are throwing away so much food and i am trying to find solutions to optimise our behaviour. I am looking at other municipalities and trying to conceive a model to share with the local authority.

5 Igualdad de género.
En concreto mi pueblo en general, se predomina el patriarcado hasta hoy día algunos jóvenes tienen esas ideas inculcadas de sus hogares; la mujer solo sirve para las tareas domésticas, el hombre es quién debe de trabajar etc...
En los planes de empleo se refleja también, se contrata a más hombres que mujeres.

I selected SDG 5 as i have always advocate for women to be treated with the same level of respect  in and out of the office.
i believe women are so much stronger and so much capable then mean even if we are created equal history has shown women always get the short end of the stick.

I believe that there are lots of work that what man can do women does also.

I would like to focus on girls empowerment, which is related to Sustainable Development Goal Number Five. In my community in India, unfortunately girls are restricted in society due to gender. I would like to contribute towards gender equality.

responsible consumption and production
This is shown also in the movie where there are no plants which means they have to import food. My country is still green but there is more to be done to ensure sustainable development as more resources like trees are used but replanting is not done which can lead  to deforestation.

The issue I want to talk about is SDG 5. Gender Issues are often undermined and lately I was reminded when our president had a biased representation and even after women demonstrating, there was little or nothing that was done.

My choice in on SDG 12 as it is concidering ecology, global responsibilities, shared participation, sustainable development, etc.

# data[].attributes.body
I choose SGD 11 because it is the one that has always worried me more throughout my life and the one that is, in my opinion, more worrisome in my country. Even though all the themes are intertwined - you will only have a truly sustainable community when gender equality is achieved and it’s impossible to have sustainable and functioning cities without responsible consumption and production – this one is the most global one. Portugal has given steps in this area but there is still so, so much to be done. An effort is being made but we are a poor country, much due to the high level of corruption we have. A considerable part of the money that should be invested in the benefit of the country disappears into “dark places” and in the end tax payers still have to bailout the banks… it blows my mind! But, as I said, things are evolving. The recycling % is still low, 20,4% (in 2018) but it’s 20,4% more than 16 years ago when it was 0% J. 85% of the used water goes to water sewage facilities. The quality of life in many municipalities is good but there aren’t many jobs available and therefore thousands of young people emigrate contributing to our population-ageing. The worst thing are summer fires. Most of our forest is, unfortunately, composed of eucalyptus and pine trees (interests of the pulp industry) and a proper and sustainable reforestation isn’t being done – this is having ,and will have, a huge negative impact in this part of the planet because it helps the country to become even poorer. I’ve enclosed a link of a Portuguese Data site that shows the evolution of Portuguese economy, society…

I selected SDG 12 as I think that in the choice given, it is the issue that will ring a bell to my students. We can speak about how they act at home, leaving their phones, PCs plugged in. And at school we could work on the lights to switch off when leaving a room ...

Though being tempted to choose a more "interesting" issue I chose SDG12 because I think it's very important and all of us can bring a lot of change just from changing our daily habits. Not leaving running faucets, don't overusing electricity would be easy steps to begin acting on that would lead to a greater cange both locally and globally.

I chose SDG 5 - gender equality. I did choose it, because I want to set a few actions in "my community", the alternative school I'm working at. In school structure boys and girls are treated in the same way - there is no difference. But in everyday (school) life the girls are still not as present as the boys (or many of them) are. I'd like to empower the girls much more to speak out their opinion and make use of their right for the same space, the same time with the adults (if needed) and more consideration for their needs.
I know, it's a very "small issue" - but it's going to be a change for a hand full of girls...

I'd like to chose SDG 5, gender equality, as in my country there are still so many sex/gender stereotypes that affect women's condition daily. Also, gender based violence is still a concern and women are being killed becuase of their gender. Equal pay for equal work in many places, sharing of housechores, elderly and child care...are issues still pending too.

I would like to chose SDG 5" Gender equality" because in my community women still does not have equal rights as men, and they are still struggling from gender based violence and inequality; women are supposed to adhere to their husbands' orders to stay at home and take care of the house and the children. They are not supposed to have ambitions and goals to be achieved like any normal human being.

I would like to choose number five: "gender equality", because even though we are on the XXI century, at least in my community there are big differences beetwen what a man or a woman should do. Is expected for women to stay at home and take care of the children and usually that make difficult to them to keep studying or working as they do before. So, because of the gender sterotypes a lot of girls I know had to change their lifes.

# data[].attributes.headline
I chose gender equality since here in our community they are certain activities that are always considered for men  that the community denies women to do them and there are more abuses to women hence our community believes women must be submissive to their husbands although the home is not conducive to them .

I would prefer to discuss  about gender equality... SDG 5.
Here , whenever a girl is born somewhere, excludingly some areas' people behave in a very negative manner..!  Abuse either that is verbal or physical is common..! Girls aren't given with adequate rights. They can't  study, go out properly as they feel insecure.
Domestic violence is now perceived  to be a minor thing.
They aren't given with the right to defend themselves if anyone says something worse to them. And in some areas, they are just limited to stay in homes and do house chores..
Such behaviour has caused them to suffer through many mental and physical disorders.Lack of confidence, insecurity, fear, lower self esteem and the tendency towards suicide is common in such girls.
Boys are considered to be more to prior to them..!
This attitude  is spreading  like a contagious  virus.. and thus it should be now treated with a considerable and mutual effort..!

The selected issue is SDG number 5 : Gender Equality.
I have selected this issue because of the following serious problem of ( EARLY OR CHILD MARRIAGES)  Babies and mother's  in such marriages are affected with  the following problems – premature death , retarded growth, emotional trauma, vesico-vaginal fistula (VVF), prolonged labour, anaemia (shortage of blood), miscarriage, vaginal tear, caesarean sections, educational setbacks, accelerated ageing, promiscuity, bleeding (pre and post ..
In my country Zambia this issue goes on silently in both rural and Urban  communities. I have chosen it coz I feel a lot more can still be done to completely put a stop to it.

I choose gender equality because women and girls are not yet completely free from intimidation, domestic sexual violence and gender based violence both from work, school  and home.

I'd like to chose SDG No.5 : Gender Equality.
In my country this topic is either taboo or mostly ignored. Yes, over the years there are some small but equally important movements but they do not gain enough media coverage and public attention.
For example, in most cases women have to fight over each other for one working spot while there are plenty vacant for males(unless they are from the LGBTQ+ community who mostly don't have any opportunities at all)
On the other side of the spectrum in the School Education System males are not preffered as teachers by parents and as a results many young people cannot work their dream job.
All in all, a person's gender doesn't make them anything less then they are. ''it's just a lable you can say'' - There are some differences biological and physical-wise but that does not mean there sould be an equality of opportunities(education,healthcare, in law), being able to express opinions, being judged & etc..

I have chosen the gender equality because there still are women raped or even murdered just because they wear mini-skirt or short.

I chose to explain how we try to work on SDGs with students in my school. Colleagues of mine usually work on SDG 5 around the date of March 8th (Woman Day) and you can see 2 posters created by children. We also start working on our consumption of electricity in school. Solar panels have just been put on the school roof top. On each light switch, there is a little sticker to remind everyone to swith off the light and a big light board is going to count our consumption so that students can try and analyze all that with their science teachers (SGDs 11 & 12).
