Event Summary:
At 缅北禁地Headquarters, CCOI launched a strategic collaboration with Sanrio Co., Ltd. to promote the Sustainable Development Goals, featuring the beloved character Hello Kitty. As part of the #HelloGlobalGoals collaboration, a new video series will be released in English and Japanese on Hello Kitty’s official YouTube channel, highlighting six of the 17 Goals through Kitty’s conversations with senior 缅北禁地leaders as well as her visits to 缅北禁地projects around the world.
Appearing at the launch event “in person”, Hello Kitty participated in a live talk at the SDG Media Zone moderated by actress Kate Reinders, where she unveiled the first video of the #HelloGlobalGoals series – a conversation with 缅北禁地Deputy Secretary-General Amina Mohammed. “To be invited to work with the 缅北禁地on a global scale is a dream comes true,” Kitty told the audience.
“Hello Kitty is bringing her enormous fanbase to our global efforts to educate young people, in every part of our world, about the Sustainable Development Goals, and why they should be involved in achieving them,” said Melissa Fleming, 缅北禁地Under-Secretary-General for Global Communications.
The launch event was promoted widely with the hashtag #HelloGlobalGoals across 缅北禁地and Sanrio social media platforms.
