Global Goals

For Sustainable Development

WHAT ARE

The Global Goals?

In 2015, world leaders agreed to 17 goals for a better world by 2030. These goals have the power to end poverty, fight inequality and address the urgency of climate change. Inspired and guided by the goals, it is now up to all of us: governments, businesses, civil society and the general public to work together to build a better and more sustainable future for everyone.

SO WHAT'S

The Exciting Part?

The exciting aspect for Parenta, is that there is a natural fit and tie-in to education: Goal No. 4 being “Quality Education”. Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.

 

Education liberates the intellect, unlocks the imagination and is fundamental for self-respect. It is the key to prosperity and opens a world of opportunities, making it possible for each of us to contribute to a progressive, healthy society. Learning benefits every human being and should be available to all.

The Targets

There are ten ‘targets’ within Goal No. 4 – and two in particular that clearly resonate with Parenta:  

4:2 Equal Access to Quality Pre-Primary Education

By 2030, ensure that all girls and boys have access to quality early childhood development, care and pre-primary education so that they are ready for primary education.

4:3 Equal Access to Affordable Technical, Vocational and Higher Education

By 2030, ensure equal access for all women and men to affordable and quality technical, vocational and tertiary education, including university.

Both of these targets sit perfectly within Parenta’s values and ethos, allowing us to bring greater synergy between what we do as a training provider and our charitable efforts, through Parenta Trust.

  

For Parenta, supporting the early years sector isn’t limited to the UK - we are passionate about extending our work to make a difference to the early years sector globally. Our learners, through the training we provide them, already impact thousands of children’s lives in the UK, so why not extend this worldwide? Our charity Parenta Trust mission is “to raise funds to build pre-schools in the most deprived areas of the world: to allow the youngest, most vulnerable children in desperate need of an education to break out of the cycle of poverty and look forward to a bright future.”
 
By aligning ourselves with Global Goals, there is clear potential to be able to deliver something tangible to tie in what the business does in the UK with what it does in the third world. 

Our Intention

Our intention is that our Global Goals deliverables will begin in early 2020. To be able to combine and co-ordinate our commercial activities with our charitable objectives not only allows us here at Parenta to contribute to the vision of Global Goals, but makes our company unique in the early years sector.
