The United Nation Sustainable Development Goals
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development
The Sustainable Development Goals or Global Goals are a collection of 17 interlinked goals designed to be a "blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all". The SDGs were set in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly and are intended to be achieved by the year 2030.
Established: 2015
Mission statement: "A blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all by 2030"
Founder: United Nations
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is the universally agreed plan to transform our world. With 17 Sustainable Development Goals as our guide, and a core promise to leave no one behind, the Agenda points the way toward a more peaceful, equitable, and sustainable world for all.
Though the goals are broad and interdependent, two years later (6 July 2017) the SDGs were made more "actionable" by a UN Resolution adopted by the General Assembly. The resolution identifies specific targets for each goal, along with indicators that are being used to measure progress toward each target. The year by which the target is meant to be achieved is usually between 2020 and 2030. For some of the targets, no end date is given.
Six years since its adoption by the United Nations Member States, there has been important progress in bringing the Agenda to life. At the same time, we were not moving fast enough. Now with COVID-19 the clock is ticking, we face immense challenges, and all partners must urgently accelerate implementation, because COVID-18 has pushed the goals back by at least 3 to 4 years
