Reference To United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations members in 2015, created 17 world Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The aim of these global goals is "peace and prosperity for people and the planet" – while tackling climate change and working to preserve oceans and forests.
The Sustainable Development Goals are a call for action by all
countries
- poor, rich and middle-income – to promote prosperity while
protecting the planet.
They recognize that ending poverty must go hand-in-hand with
strategies that build economic
growth and address a range of social needs including
education,
health, social protection,
and job opportunities, while tackling climate change and
environmental protection.

The Agenda remains the world’s roadmap for ending poverty, protecting the planet and tackling inequalities. The 17 SDGs, the cornerstone of the Agenda, offer the most practical and effective pathway to tackle the causes of violent conflict, human rights abuses, climate change and environmental degradation and aim to ensure that no one will be left behind. The SDGs reflect an understanding that sustainable development everywhere must integrate economic growth, social well-being and environmental protection.
