Each piece that drives the academic publishing community is represented in the SDG Publishers Compact Fellows. From each of our disparate perspectives, every issue takes a different shape; however, the Fellows are unified in the belief that we are each poised and bound to act - that we can ensure scholarship and learning serves the good of the earth and all who inhabit it. We are those who have decided to build a world where publishers, researchers, educators and practitioners collaborate to solve the SDGs.

  • Our Vision

    A world where publishers, researchers, educators and practitioners collaborate effectively to achieve the SDGs.
