#Sustainability is the foundation for today’s

leading global framework for international
cooperation – the 2030 Agenda for
Sustainable Development and its
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

#Each of the 17 SDGs has specific targets to

be achieved by 2030. The goals and targets
are universal, meaning they apply to all
countries around the world, not just poor
countries. Reaching the goals requires
action on all fronts – governments,
businesses, civil society and people
everywhere all have a role to play.
