The 17 Sustainable Development Goals are the global blueprint for building a better world for humanity and nature by 2030. They were adopted in 2015 after more than 2 years of work.
Unlike the Millennium Development Goals 2000-2015, which focused mainly on developing countries, implementing the UN Sustainable Development Goals 2015-2030 is a task for all countries in the world. They are inclusive, connected, oriented towards peace, human well-being, preserving the planet and building a multi-stakeholder partnership to achieve them.
"We are determined to mobilise the necessary means to implement this agenda through a renewed global partnership for sustainable development, based on a spirit of enhanced global solidarity, addressing in particular the needs of the poorest and most vulnerable, and involving all countries, all key stakeholders and all people."
