Term 1, 2020 – the social issue is the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/?menu=1300 Consider a single SDG that the majority of the team is interested in. Each project team must choose one of the goals to align their project on. Only one team will be able to align their project to a single SDG. Once that team has posted on the forum that they will be working on that SDG it will no longer be an option for other teams. Other considerations: This will be the area that your project must align to. Each member of the team must work on a proposal for a project in this area – each proposal must be a substantially different project. Proposals must not be research projects or based on homelessness (previous terms social issue. Once you have decided on the SDG that your team wants to work, check the forum post to ensure it is still available. If it is available, to secure that SDG, reply to the forum post with the following information:
- 37. • The SDGyour team will work on, • what campus and workshop you are in, • the names and student numbers of the project team.

Where possible, time will be provided, during Theme 1 workshops (weeks 1 and 2) to complete these activities.

What do you value? “It’s never too late to better understand your core values and align your career to them. Your career satisfaction and happiness may depend upon it.” (Loffredo, 2017) What do you want? Many students get to the end of a degree just trying to get through the assessments. Apart from graduating students rarely ask themselves what they want to achieve during the units they study. This unit gives you this opportunity. What do you not have on your resume that your dream job requires? Leveraging opportunities How can you leverage this unit to bridge gaps in your resume or to network with an organisation you would love to work for? You can shape this experience.
