Note

What are the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)? These were adopted by all UN member states in 2015 to provide a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and in the future. At its heart, there are 17 SDGs, which call for all countries to come together in a global partnership. They recognize 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 our oceans and forests.
