What are the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)?
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that all people live in peace and prosperity by 2030.
Achieving these goals will require the combined efforts of governments, private organizations and individuals. For this reason, many companies are looking for ways to promote and manage the Sustainable Development Goals within their organizations.
