The SDG #15 Mural is Moving to the Zoo - Join us for the re-unveiling!
SDG #15 aims to protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss.
This November 30th, the Global Philadelphia Association will be re-unveiling the SDG #15 mural, originally unveiled at Chestnut Hill College Campus in 2024, at its new home: the Philadelphia Zoo! The Philadelphia Zoo supports SDG 15 (Life on Land) mainly through conservation breeding and public engagement. It participates in national zoo conservation and breeding programs that act as safety nets for species threatened with extinction in the wild.
