SECTION A: The Role of Social Media in Achieving the Sustainable Development
Goals (35 Marks)
Introduction
The world we live in today is full of challenges like poverty, climate change, inequality,
and poor access to education. To solve these problems, the United Nations came up
with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) under the 2030 Agenda. These
goals are meant to improve the lives of people everywhere and protect our planet.
Social media has become one of the most powerful tools in our hands to raise
awareness, inspire change, and connect people to these global goals.
In this section, I will focus on two SDGs and explain how social media helps in
achieving them.
Chosen SDGs and Background Information
1. SDG 4: Quality Education
This goal is about ensuring everyone has access to quality education, no matter their
background, gender, or location. It aims to promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.
Education opens doors for better jobs, improves lives, and helps build peaceful
communities.
2. SDG 13: Climate Action
This goal is about taking urgent action to fight climate change and its effects. The planet
is getting hotter, weather patterns are changing, and many people are already suffering.
