Our wish was to digitize and expand the already existing analog Wheel of Fortune on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals in order to make it accessible to the public and more flexible overall. To make the design as inclusive as possible, easy and difficult questions were developed for different age groups and a translation of the content into English was made. In addition, the pictures from Stuttgart, which correspond to the content of the questions, make the quiz seem more lively, attractive and tangible. Through the playful approach, with the essential tasks for our future, society should be sensitized to the various topics of sustainability and the understanding of the interrelationships between them facilitated. | ![]() |
This SDG online quiz could be financed with the help of a successful crowdfunding campaign by Stadtwerke Stuttgart and with support from fairplaid project coaches.
On behalf of the entire alliance, we would like to thank all donors as well as the municipal utilities and fairplaid for their help in implementing this project.
We would also like to express our gratitude to the public supporters!
