The countdown has begun to September’s summit on the sustainable development goals, with national governments now discussing the 17 goals that could transform the world by 2030.
What are the sustainable development goals?
The sustainable development goals (SDGs) are a new, universal set of goals, targets and indicators that UN member states will be expected to use to frame their agendas and political policies over the next 15 years.
The SDGs follow, and expand on, the millennium development goals (MDGs), which were agreed by governments in 2000, and are due to expire at the end of this year.
In the article “Sustainable Development Goals: Where is the Common Good?” I argue that if the SDGs are not going to be a failure like the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) before it, then, it requires a different path with a different set of values, as well as a different model of development.
