The Best of Times Project is an art-based social enterprise which aims to shed light on the real and effectual global changes that has been made since 2000. Based on the U.N. Sustainable Development Goal's progress report for 2019, The Best of Times Project contains a series of thirty illustrations that each celebrate an advancement towards one of the seventeen SDGs. These illustrations both teach the core mission of each goal (i.e. Health and Well-Being) and the work that is currently being done to create global change (i.e. decrease in Measles deaths due to vaccination.)

Action most often proceeds an understanding of attainable progress. Kathleen believes the SDGs are a powerful tool to give young people hope and a deeper understanding of their own ability to make a difference. The illustration project will act as an educational resource, to raise awareness about the SDGs goals and how they can reach them by 2030.

Throughout the course of the Millennium Fellowship, the aim is to create three separate teaching booklets, for teachers and parents, to accompany the online illustrated book and educational website (www.bestoftimesproject.com). These resources will be partnered with three interactive illustration workshops, hosted with local schools, that will encourage students to draw their own depictions of good news happening around the world. The sales of printed copies of the book and art prints will fund donations of educational materials to local Brisbane schools and schools in Ovalau, Fiji.
