The showcase returns on 28 October 2025, bringing together students and staff to spotlight projects advancing the SDGs across research, teaching and campus life.
UNSW’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Showcase is back and moving to the Roundhouse this October with an exciting invitation for students and staff to share their work with the University community. Expressions of interest (EOIs) are now open for presentations, stalls and sessions that bring the SDGs to life.
This year’s program expands to welcome alumni, industry and donors, offering a powerful platform to raise participant profiles, build new connections and spark future funding or collaboration.
With more than 1000 attendees and 50 stalls at last year’s launch, the 2025 Showcase will be bigger and brighter than ever to celebrate the work UNSW is doing to tackle global issues that matter most.
“The showcase reflects UNSW’s deep commitment to inclusive, purpose-driven progress,” says Professor Bruce Watson, Pro Vice-Chancellor Societal Transformation & Equity.
“Last year’s event sparked real momentum, bringing together students, educators and researchers across disciplines. This year, by inviting external audiences, we have a powerful opportunity to share our work more broadly, build meaningful partnerships and accelerating impact towards a more sustainable, inclusive future.”
