Posted in 14/05/2019

UN Secretary-General António Guterres has named Brazilian footballer Marta Vieira da Silva as one of the champions of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for 2019-2020.

Marta is among 17 public figures designated by the United Nations Secretary-General to promote the SDGs, raise awareness, and maintain and expand global commitment. The Brazilian's choice as a defender of the SDGs reflects her role in promoting gender equality and the empowerment of women, and also her commitment to the values of the United Nations, having also been a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
