Abstract

The paper attempts an appraisal of the contributions of the Nigerian Baptist Convention (NBC) to the attainment of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs). With the use of primary and secondary data and historico-descriptive designs the paper assesses the roles and contributions of the Nigerian Baptist Convention in the realization of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs). The paper identified some factors inhibiting the influence of the NBC, in particular, and Faith-Based Organizations FBOS, in general, on making an impact in the drive towards actualizing the UNSDGs in Nigeria. Against the background of its findings the paper recommends measures for roadmapping contributions of the NBC to the actualization of the UNSDGs in Nigeria.
