Taking part in SDG’s actions is fundamental for the world and for their habitants, and these goals are the size of the world. This means that each one of us needs to be part of its fulfillment. As Michael Green said in 2015, “the global goals are who we, humanity, want to be”  [1]. We asked ourselves a question: who do we want to be and how will we achieve it? We concluded that we want to be part of the development and fulfillment of the SDG’s. It is not an easy task but we are certain that we will contribute to it in our own particular manner.

 

The Social Progress Index [2], which measures the global noneconomic dimensions of social performance, shows the indicators of life quality in each country. Currently, Mexico is on the third Tier in this ranking; a fact that is quite alarming since it means that there is plenty to do in our country. We carefully choose a project that targets three Sustainable Goals, two from the social project index, which are “Water and Sanitation”, “Health and Wellness” and “Life Below Water”. We chose the first one since water is a basic human need that not everybody has access to. The second one was chosen since access to clean drinking water is essential as a foundation of wellbeing. The third objective was chosen due to the dangers to ocean life posed by the exposure to plastics, microplastics and its derivatives.
