Sessions will begin on the hour, every 2 hours throughout the day. In keeping with SDG 3: Good Health & Wellbeing, there are multiple carefully timed breaks for time away from your screen, and to process the virtual experience.

Our online programme is being created as we speak. Stay tuned over on our website: www.sdgsummits.nz for updates, or follow us on socials: @AotearoaSDGSummitSeries
