Global Esports Federation to Team Up with UNESCO

Global Esports Federation (GEF) and UNESCO have revealed their intention to team up with each other and contribute towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Each organisation will bring specific expertise and focus to facilitate the progress of four SDGs, aimed at empowering the youth of the world, in particular; SDG 3: good health and wellbeing, SDG 4: quality education, SDG 5: gender equality, and SDG 17: partnerships for the goals.

The GEF and UNESCO share a collective vision for a safe, healthy, and inclusive society in which youth are active agents of change; and have agreed to collaborate in mobilising resources and activating the world’s esports and sporting communities, developing pathways for “building back better” as part of UNESCO’s “Fit for Life” initiative and the GEF’s #Elevate2030 programme.
