Europe
GCAP Europe’s coalitions are very active, especially in raising awareness on the SDGs and holding their governments accountable.
GCAP Europe consists of 21 National Coalitions, with a Secretariat that is based in Brussels. GCAP Europe is also on the Steering Group of SDG Watch Europe and part of the EU funded project Make Europe Sustainable for All.
On 25 September 2017 and 2018, from the top of Norway to southern Greece, and from Brussels to Azerbaijan people all over Europe came together in over 130 events in 33 countries (including 22 in the EU).
