UNDP’s Post

Have you heard of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals? The 17 overarching goals encapsulate the greatest challenge facing our planet and its people, as well as group the for-good efforts of NGOs, governments, and the private sector. The UN has set a milestone of 2030 for collective global project on the goals. A status report last year found that although we are behind on the majority of goals, those that are seeing significant progress also have the most collaboration. Public-private partnerships really do work. Small business innovation can have a massive impact. Nonprofits can often feel like they exist in a silo, with little help. The UN SDG's provide a framework to visualize individual work within a tapestry of efforts. Technology is a factor in accelerating progress, serving as a connector of different groups, and often negatively impacting climate and natural resources. How does your work factor into the UN SDGs? What global and societal challenges are you addressing through innovation? UNDP

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of 17 interconnected global goals adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. These goals are designed to address the world's most pressing challenges, from ending poverty and hunger to combating climate change and ensuring quality education for all. The #SDGs emphasize a holistic approach, recognizing that action in one area will affect outcomes in others. This interconnectedness ensures a balanced approach to achieving a more sustainable, equitable, and prosperous world by 2030. By working together, countries, businesses, and individuals can drive progress towards these critical goals, ensuring a better future for all.

Our world faces pressing challenges in the pursuit of a sustainable future. Although we are two-thirdway through the 2030 Agenda, we are still far off track from reaching the Sustainable Development Goals. Realizing the goals is still possible by uniting governments, civil societies, businesses, communities and individuals With only 6 years left until 2030, United Nations Regional Commissions will come together at High-Level Political Forum to share solutions and recommendations from regions, aiming to achieve the 2030 Agenda on time.

🌍🤝 By 2030, nations must achieve the Sustainable Development Goals through policy coherence. That will only be possible if policies work in harmony – a tough task. At the halfway mark, it is clear that we need to remedy policy incoherencies more effectively. How have we at ECDPM tackled this issue over 10 years? #SDGs #PolicyCoherence
