The training was organised for two days i.e. 20^th – 201^st April 2023 in Jinja. This workshop was a tailor-made training for the SDG Champions and journalists. The training of the Champions focused on the SDGs and their targets, national and international processes and how the champions could participate in and facilitate the processes. Focus was also on how the SDGs can be reported on the various media platforms. This tailor-made training was facilitated by the 2030Beyond initiative.

The implementation of the SDG Joint Initiative commenced in March 2023. As part of the initiative, an SDG Training was organised for the 23 Champions and the Regional Partners from the selected regions where the Regional Festivals will take place. The purpose of the planned training was to enhance the capacity of the Champions as SDG trainers for SDG acceleration coordination, implementation and reporting but also discuss models for successful implementation of the SDG People’s Festivals. The training was conducted by an International Consultant from 2030Beyond with support from the Local Consultant to provide the local context and perspectives into the training.
