Hello to all users we are officially participating in in global goals in various activities like for the meeting of world leaders.

As some of you may have already read as Wikia has made a global announcement of this, 193 world leaders have committed to 17 Global Goals on September 25, that aim at achieving three extraordinary things in the next 15 years: end extreme poverty, fight inequality and injustice, and fix climate change. In order to help spread awareness of this and show support, the Avatar Wiki has joined several other wikis that have temporarily changed their background and put a banner on their main page.

In order for these Global Goals for sustainable development to work, everyone needs to know about them. You can't fight for your rights if you don't know what they are, and you can't convince world leaders to do what needs to be done if you don't know what you're convincing them to do. Bottom line: If the goals are famous, they won't be forgotten.
