Halftime Campaign
Our
‘Inches’ film with Al Pacino gave the world a Halftime talk like no other. The
video has now reached an audience of over 10 million, with halftime hijacks on
Sky Sports in the UK and NBC Sports in the US, screenings at the Halftime
Show at the UN and the Global Citizen Festival. To re-watch the film and find out

The SDG Pavilion
- The
SDG Pavilion, designed by Es Devlin, provided a beacon of hope for
the Goals at Halftime in the grounds of the UN.
- The
Pavilion welcomed an extraordinary roster of illustrious speakers,
artists, and visionaries for lively debates, talks and performances
on some of the most pressing issues we face today. Winning
Strategies for Financing the SDGs was just one of the engaging
sessions brought to audiences at the Pavilion - discover the other
themes and watch all the Halftime Talks here.
- Programming
kicked off with the Halftime Show - featuring Barbados Prime
Minister Mia Mottley, Deputy Secretary General of the United
Nations Amina Mohammed, Orlando Bloom, Forest Whitaker, Yemi
Alade, and many others who added their voices to our call for
urgent action on the SDGs. If you missed it, catch up on the
show on UN YouTube.

Goalkeepers
- This
September the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation launched their
seventh annual Goalkeepers Report,
‘Imagine A World’, focused on neonatal and maternal health.
- During
UNGA week we co-produced the Goalkeepers Daytime Event and Goalkeepers
Global Goals Awards in partnership with the Foundation,
bringing together over 400 members of the Goalkeepers
Community.
- The
daytime event used storytelling, data, performances and panels to
bring the Imagine A World theme to life, exploring themes from
women’s health and economic power to funding the SDGs. Watch the
Goalkeepers event here.
- The
awards event celebrated three core winners - Cameroonian midwife and
maternal health advocate Ashu Martha Agbornyent, Eden
Tadesse from Ethiopia for her commitment to refugee rights, and
US-based The Farmlink Project for tackling food insecurity
and minimizing food waste across the US. Watch the awards here.

Goals
House
- We
partnered with Goals House, a diverse community of businesses,
political leaders, activists, NGOs and entrepreneurs, to host a
total of 57 events across four days.
- From
a high-level dinner co-hosted with Voice for Nature and the Natural
History Museum (UK), through to a reception for Gender Equality at
Halftime and an important discussion with the private sector calling
for just transition - our events ignited conversations and
connections at Halftime across all 17 Global Goals.
We
are reflecting on UNGA 2023 full of hope and optimism. We know there is
still so much work to be done, but coming together at the SDG Pavilion,
Goals House and Goalkeepers has shown us that with the right
partnerships, investment and political will, we can - and will -
change the game in the second half.
