Sustainable Development Goals uploaded to the Global Value Exchange
A set of 17 outcomes and 174 indicators developed from the Sustainable Development Goals has been uploaded to the Global Value Exchange
The Global Goals for Sustainable Development are a set of goals and targets which will provide a framework for UN member states when developing policies, agendas and aid programmes. The 17 Goals set out to achieve an ambitious plan; to end poverty and combat climate change, inequality and injustice for all people around the globe.
Following on from the Millennium Development Goals, the Sustainable Development Goals target a broader range of issues, and aim to address the underlying causes of poverty and inequality which act as a barrier to sustainable development. Stakeholder involvement has informed the selection of the Sustainable Development Goals, with the UN conducting and facilitating various working group discussions, consultations and door-to-door surveys, as well as the creation of the My World 2015 website where anybody can vote on the development issues they feel are most important.
