2030 Agenda
"We must take the first determined steps toward a sustainable future with dignity for all. Transformation is our aim. We must transform our economies, our environment and our societies. We must change old mindsets, behaviours and destructive patterns. We must embrace the integrated essential elements of dignity, people, prosperity, planet, justice and partnership."
The road to dignity by 2030. Synthesis report of the Secretary-General on the post-2015 sustainable development agenda. United Nations, A/69/700.
In 2015, the UN approved 2030 Agenda on Sustainable Development, an opportunity for countries and their societies to embark on a new path to improve the lives of everyone, leaving no one behind. The Agenda has 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), ranging from eradicating poverty to combating climate change, education, gender equality, environmental protection and the design of our cities. In this regard, SDG 11 pursues cities that are inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable.
