TOGETHER IN ACHIEVING SDGs THROUGH MOUNTAINEERING
The Climbing4SDGs initiative has set its goal to utilize mountaineering as a platform for the purpose of engaging with local communities, creating awareness about the SDGs, motivating individuals to take action and supporting innovation.
Mountaineering
Climbing the world's tallest peaks to advocate sustainability, with mountaineering as a metaphor for the challenges to attain sustainability.
Entrepreneurship
Climbing mountains require an entrepreneurial mindset. It is all about taking risk & persevering through adversity.
The Global SDGs
The climbs aim at engaging with local communities, inspiring and supporting ideas bringing people together towards global goals.
Hey there,
I'm Anurag Maloo
Here’s my story:
I am a Mountaineer, Entrepreneur, Business & Climate Athlete, Keynote Speaker, based out of India.
As a trained mountaineer, I not only seek to climb the world’s tallest peaks to advocate for sustainability but also to demonstrate the resilience of the human spirit. This was never more evident than during my expedition on Mt. Annapurna in April 2023, where I experienced a miraculous rescue that gripped the world. After being stranded in a crevasse for three days, a team of brave rescuers overcame improbable odds to save me, a testament to the power of teamwork and the indomitable will to survive.
I believe that mountaineering challenges can serve as a powerful metaphor for the struggles humanity faces in achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). That’s why I started the #Climbing4SDGs initiative, which aims to use mountaineering as a platform to engage with local communities, raise awareness about the SDGs, inspire people to take action, and support innovation.
The Mountains teach us an important lesson: the world belongs to everyone! So, let’s create an inclusive and equitable world by creatively engaging with the SDGs. My journey on Annapurna has only strengthened my resolve to climb for a cause greater than myself.
The Annapurna Miracle
What would you do if you fell into a deep, icy crevasse on the slopes of the most dangerous mountain in the world?
That’s what happened to me on April 17, 2023, when I was attempting to climb Mt. Annapurna, the tenth-highest peak in the world and the first eight-thousander to be successfully climbed.
But I was not just climbing for the thrill of it. I was climbing for a purpose. I was climbing for the SDGs. I survived three days with no food, water, or communication. I was rescued by a team of Sherpas who heard my voice. I was alive!
How did I do it? How did I recover? How did I continue my mission?
