PARTNERSHIPS FOR A BETTER AND MORE SUSTAINABLE WORLD.

The United Nations (UN) has declared a Decade of Action to address the slow progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Publishers are seen as crucial in advancing these goals and are encouraged to sign the SDG Publishers Compact, which aligns their practices and content with the SDGs. PublisHer, a female-led initiative, is also working to advance the SDGs, particularly SDG5, Equality for Women, within the publishing industry.

PublisHer is also collaborating with Visa to support female-owned businesses in the publishing sector. [Extracted from the article]
