Sustainable Development Goals
goals developed by the United Nations that build upon and replace the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) that expired on 2015. There are 17 goals that have been developed and the United Nations aims to achieve these by 2030.
Rationale of SDG
- the MDGs were effective in their work, yet they ended in 2015, so the SDGs were designed to keep ,oving forward in improvng global health and wellbeing and human development
- Progress in all areas was very uneven. Hence, not every goal was achieved. The poor and the most disadvantaged groups were left behind in terms of progress, indicating work still needed to be done to ensure all people experience improvements in human development
- New global challenges had emerged including extreme conflict, widespread migration and environmental changes.
