Sustainable Development Goals
An action plan adopted in 2015 by all UN member states for people, planet, and prosperity. It aims to eradicate poverty in all its forms and dimensions, including extreme poverty, a major global challenge and a sine qua non for sustainable development. All countries and all stakeholders, working in partnership, will implement this plan. The 17 Sustainable Development Goals and 169 targets demonstrate the scale and ambition of this new universal agenda.
