UN Sustainable Development Goals
In September 2015, the UN Member States adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development ("Transforming our World").
​
The Goals and targets will stimulate action over the next fifteen years in areas of critical importance for humanity and the planet:
People
To end poverty and hunger, in all their forms and dimensions, and to ensure that all human beings can fulfil their potential in dignity and equality and in a healthy environment.
Planet
Protect the planet from degradation, including through sustainable consumption and production, sustainably managing its natural resources and taking urgent action on climate change, so that it can support the needs of the present and future generations.
Prosperity
Focus on ensuring that all human beings can enjoy prosperous and fulfilling lives and that economic, social and technological progress occurs in harmony with nature.
Peace
Foster peaceful, just and inclusive societies which are free from fear and violence. There can be no sustainable development without peace and no peace without sustainable development.
Partnership
​The 17 Sustainable Development Goals are interlinked and integrated and the partnerships and collaboration across all of the goals are of crucial importance in ensuring that the purpose of the new Agenda is realised.
