Sustainability - United Nations.

(SDGs).

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations are established to be an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - in a global partnership.


The SDGs recognise that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve the world's oceans and forests.

The SDGs were adopted by all member states in 2015, as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
