 INTRODUCTION
• "Sustainable development is development that meets
the needs of the present without compromising the
ability of future generations to meet their own needs."
• Sustainable development is a concept that appeared for
the first time in 1987 with the publication of the
Brundtland Report, warning of the negative
environmental consequences of economic growth and
globalization, which tried to find possible solutions to
the problems caused by industrialization and population
growth.
 ITS NEED
• Sustainable development is important as it saves national
budget, fulfills the need of people, conserves natural
resources, helps in the coordination between the natural
resources and people and conserves natural resources for
future generation.
• In order to have healthy communities, we need clean air,
natural resources, and a non toxic environment.
• A 2013 study concluded that sustainability reporting
should be reframed through the lens of four
interconnected domains: ecology, economics, politics and
culture.
 GOALS
• In the year 2000, the United Nations adopted eight objectives to
meet the main needs of the poorest, the Millennium
Development Goals:
• Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger
• Achieve universal primary education
• Promote gender equality
• Reduce child mortality
• Improve maternal health
• Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria, and other diseases
• Ensure environmental sustainability
• Develop a global partnership for development 
 2030 GLOBAL AGENDA
• The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a global agenda,
adopted by countries in 2015, with a vision of ending poverty,
protecting the planet and ensuring that all people enjoy peace and
prosperity.
• The 17 SDGs and 169 targets are part of what is known as the 2030
Global Agenda, which recognizes "that eradicating poverty in all its
forms and dimensions, including extreme poverty, is the greatest
global challenge and an indispensable requirement for sustainable
development.“
• 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.
 WHERE INDIA STANDS?
• India follows a holistic approach towards its
2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
by launching various schemes.
• These include Swachh Bharat mission, Beti
Bacho Beti Padhao, Pradhan Mantri
AwasYojana, Smart Cities, Pradhan Mantri Jan
Dhan Yojana, Deen Dayal Upadhyay Gram Jyoti
Yojana and Pradhan Mantri UjjwalaYojana,
among others.
 CONCLUSION
• Sustainable Development is the need of hour.With Sustainable development
our world can survive better the way we are lacking right now.
• Epidemics and Natural Disasters are spreading globally because we have not
taken preventive measures at an early stage.
• Coronoa virus is the recent example of it.
• Sustainable development is the development that meets the needs of the
present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet
their own needs. It contains within it two key concepts:-
1. The concept of 'needs', in particular, the essential needs of the world's
poor, to which overriding priority should be give.
2. The idea of limitations imposed by the state of technology and social
organization on the environment's ability to meet present and future
needs.
