There are countless intersections between climate change and a range of other issues such as poverty, hunger, equality, employment, and sustainable land and water. The [Sustainable Development Goals](https://sdgs.un.org/goals) (SDGs) provide a useful framework for unpacking these linkages. This two-part series explores the interconnections between [SDG 13: Climate Action](https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal13) and other goals, through 10 articles by diverse community changemakers across Canada. Covering a wide range of topics from refugee education and healing justice to energy efficiency and circular economy, this series draws on a wide range of knowledge and lived experience.
