Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were drawn up by a United Nations working group together with a multitude of stakeholders and were adopted by the UN General Assembly during the United Nations Sustainable Development Summit in New York, USA, on September 25, 2015.

A total of 193 UN member states committed to the 17 goals and 169 targets for global sustainable development and the related specific objectives. The SDGs were established as of January 1, 2016, and are designed to cover a period of 15 years (up to 2030). Particular emphasis was placed on the private sector’s role in reaching these goals.
