The Mapting app was developed jointly by the SGI and Earth Charter International as a way of engaging and educating youth in the challenge of making the 17 SDGs a reality and helping to highlight the positive actions being taken everywhere to address global problems. It was launched in November 2016 at an event titled “Youth Boosting the Promotion and Implementation of the SDGs” held at the UN Headquarters in New York. The app was discontinued in 2024 and replaced with a social media hashtag campaign.
