The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development

„We resolve, between now and 2030, to end poverty and hunger everywhere; to combat inequalities within and among countries; to build peaceful, just and inclusive societies which are free from fear and violence; to protect human rights and promote gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls... We resolve also to create conditions for sustainable, inclusive and sustained economic growth, shared prosperity and decent work for all, taking into account different levels of national development and capacities."
Resolution adopted by the General Assembly 69/315
In September 2015, the goals for sustainable development replaced the Millennium Development Goals. The representatives of 193 states adopted 17 sustainable development goals, which include 169 sub-goals. The Agenda 2030 does not just address the global south, as its predecessor did, but the participation of all countries. The primary focus on the fight against poverty has also shifted to an economic, social, environmental and sustainable development. The resolution extends the Millennium Development Goals. Explicitly mentioned goals are for example the abolition of female genital mutilation as well as forced and child marriage.
