What are the Good Life Goals?
The Good Life Goals are a set of personal actions that people around the world can take to help support the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). They are behavioural/lifestyle asks for individuals that are carefully aligned with the SDGs' 169 targets and indicators. 

Why were the Good Life Goals created?
The SDGs have been transformational for policy-makers and business leaders in setting macro strategies towards urgent sustainability milestones that must be achieved by 2030. In parallel, a global movement for sustainable lifestyles is underway: a drive for a redefined “Good Life” involving individuals, brands, community groups, and educators.
The Good Life Goals were created to bridge the gap between the SDGs and the sustainable lifestyles movement. Their aim is help policy-makers, businesses, civil society groups, educators and creative professionals inspire enthusiasm, connection and action from the public for the SDGs. By providing personally relevant links to each SDG, the Good Life Goals send a message that we all, individually and collectively, can play an important role in the future. We all have the right, responsibility, and the opportunity to change the world for the better.

How do the Good Life Goals relate to the Sustainable Development Goals?
The Good Life Goals will help the global public to recognize the vital role of individual action in achieving the ambitions of the SDGs. They were created to have the greatest tangible impact, be relevant and accessible to the greatest number of people and be comprehensible by individuals around the world. Simple, positive, and engaging by design, the Good Life Goals detail the things that people can do, not a long list of things that they should not do. 
The Good Life Goals were created to serve the Sustainable Development Goals – to inspire individuals to participate in the conversation and act on the SDG’s in their everyday lives.
