With eight years to go before the 2030 Agenda is finalized, the challenges posed by the effects of the climate crisis are becoming increasingly important. Catalan universities, including Ramon Llull University (URL), have placed the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at the forefront of their strategies.

This 2nd URL Day for the promotion of the 2030 Agenda, entitled «The future is fleeting», aims precisely to highlight the need to continue promoting and reviewing the commitments of our university with the different SDGs, on this occasion, especially with SDG 7 (Clean and affordable energy), 11 (Sustainable cities and communities) and 12 (Responsible consumption and production).
