Sustainable Development Goals

Swarovski Crystallized SDG Pin

Inspired by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by all United Nations member states in 2015, the crystallized SDG pin is both a beautiful accessory and an urgent call to action. From addressing poverty, inequality, and climate change, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals serve as a shared blueprint for achieving a more sustainable and equitable world for all by 2030.

The pin in the shape of the SDGs color wheel features selected Swarovski ReCreated™ Crystals and is mounted on a recycled metal base. Crafted in collaboration with the United Nations, 85% of the purchase price of all pins sold at the Swarovski flagship store in New York will be donated to the Swarovski Foundation’s mission driving progress towards achievement of the SDGs. The pin is packaged in 100% FSC-certified recycled paper.

The pin is currently exclusively available at our New York flagship store, Swarovski on Fifth, and in the United Nations Bookshop at the United Nations Headquarters in New York.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, are a collection of 17 interlinked goals set in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly and are intended to be achieved by the year 2030. They are the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all and address global challenges.
Sustainable Development Goals
Since 2018, the Swarovski Foundation has been committed to aligning with the Sustainable Development Goals. These global goals underpin the strategy of the Swarovski Foundation to deliver our objectives and help drive positive impact. The Swarovski Foundation has identified SDG 4: Quality Education, SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, and SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals to align most with our mission to promote sustainable livelihoods through education to reduce inequality. These cross our three strategic pillars in equal measure and method and carry the strongest relevance to all aspects of our grant-making journey.
The Swarovski Foundation collaborates with charitable organisations (SDG 17), who leverage formal, non-formal and informal educational avenues (SDG 4) to enhance opportunities for beneficiaries, empower individuals to pursue sustainable livelihoods (SDG 8) and address enduring inequalities.

In the last decade, the Swarovski Foundation has supported over 2 million people in 93 countries, partnering with 85 organisations and providing critical support following 26 global emergencies. The Swarovski Foundation advances the Sustainable Development Goals through these initiatives, working alongside partners and communities to create lasting change.
