The SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) are 17 global goals adopted by the United Nations at the September 2015 Summit. Agreed upon by all 193 member countries, they represent a shared commitment to be achieved by 2030, aiming to address pressing social challenges and to create a future where people around the world can live in a cooperative, peaceful, and prosperous society.
