About the SDGZINE

The SDGZINE is a concept from Addictlab’s magazine research to create a customizable publication on the UN’s sustainable development objectives.

Content is collected through partners with local or global communities. It should inspire, showcase best practices an initiate new initiatives related to the Sustainable Development Goals.

Using Addictlab’s methodology of collective intelligence, the curated content will be made available in different ways: per SDG and the related targets, or using the partner’s projects as navigation system.

State of the art online workflow system:

You can follow the preparation and production of each magazine on www.addictlab.com. It starts as a project, with a project manager, linked to a creative hub (eg school). When ready the SDGzine becomes the output of that project.
