Our framework
Anchored to the SDGs.
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by world leaders in 2015, provides the most comprehensive blueprint for sustainable development — balancing social, economic and environmental dimensions.
It comprises 17 sustainable development goals that are interrelated and interconnected. The agenda urges countries to find innovative ways to tackle poverty, climate change, hunger, disease and conflict.
Sustainable development was first defined by the Brundtland Commission (1987) as "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."
