Sustainable Development Goals

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development calls for joint action from all countries, both developed and developing, around 17 common goals – the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The SDGs set sustainability targets and a common language for all stakeholders, focusing on five foundational principles: Planet, People, Prosperity, Peace, and Partnerships. With the aspiration of 'leaving no one behind,' they recognize that the eradication of poverty and other deprivations must be accompanied by strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and stimulate economic growth, while combating climate change and preserving ecosystems.
