Summary, in English
Sustainable Development to guide public policies and inspire societal actors to
promote sustainable development worldwide. The core of this programme are 17
‘Sustainable Development Goals’ with 169 more specific targets. Two years of
intense intergovernmental negotiations at the United Nations headquarters in New
York preceded the adoption of this agenda, which formally entered into force on
1 January 2016. The programmatic timespan is short: the goals and targets under the new agenda for sustainable development should be achieved by 2030. Some targets were to be reached even by 2020.
