Agenda 2030 and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development emerged as a continuation and amalgamation of two international agendas: the Millennium Development Goals from the year 2000, which focused on countries in the Global South and on development work, and Agenda 21, which was adopted at the UN Conference in Rio de Janeiro in 1992. The latter was aimed at every country as a framework for sustainable development, and was geared more towards domestic policies. Agenda 2030 contains 17 overarching goals.

1: No poverty
2: Zero hunger
3: Good Health and well-being
4: Quality education
5: Gender equality
6: Clean water and sanitation
7: Affordable and clean energy
8: Decent work and economic growth

11: Sustainable cities and communities
12: Responsible consumption and production
13: Climate action
14: Life below water
