It's been refreshing to see the term partnerships being unpacked and questioned today. It's critical for the successful delivery of sport towards the SDGs. #SportSDG @WiltonPark – at South East, England

There is general consensus on sport's unique ability to humanise development and build agency. The next step is to capitalize on this goodwill for those that need it the most in order to achieve the SDGs. It can be done. #SportSDG @WiltonPark – at South East, England
