Deendayal Research Institute (DRI) and The World SDG Forum extends a warm welcome to you to join as a member of the Forum and participate in the online and offline dialogue that we hope would give stakeholders who work on the ground, a voice within the SDG framework, from a practical and experience driven perspective.

The Forum, anchored by DRI, is open and inclusive for all grassroots organisations, implementing agencies, private and public sector CSR initiatives, and also national and international development partners.

The central aim of the network is to support positive social and behavioural change with and for SDG interventions with specific emphasis on going beyond simply delivering messages, to engaging practitioners in self-reflection, dialogue, exchange and feedback. 

The Forum would take up the following strategies:

• High level advocacy at global, regional and country level including the G20 process and events currently underway in India.
• Generation and analysis of behavioural change and intervention-based evidence to inform action.
• Development, dissemination, and local customisation of global guidance on key thematic issues, including process mapping validated interventions and sharing them on an open-source knowledge platform.
• Periodic meetings and webinars at the different levels for sharing of knowledge, issues and experiences.
• Digital engagement and capacity development.
• Tracking, monitoring and documentation of the results of the initiative.
