The 17 goals can only be achieved through a strong global partnership. Governments, civil society and business must work together to achieve them. German Sparkassenstiftung's broad-based networking with partner institutions in Germany and around the globe channels know-how and has a positive impact on project work. German Sparkassenstiftung's mission - to think globally, act locally, cooperate internationally - and the 200-year history of German Sparkassen with their sustainable social mission also contribute to achieving the objective of strengthening global partnerships.
