BDGDC 2030 Agenda

ALIGNMENT WITH GLOBAL GOALS

Friendship’s objective is to give opportunity, dignity and hope to all communities it work with which is in line with the “leave no one behind” UNDP 2030 agenda.

What is the 2030 Agenda?

The United Nations General Assembly adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (2030 Agenda) in September 2015. The Agenda consists of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 accompanying targets. These goals and targets were formulated through a participatory and multi-stakeholder process that involved states, global civil society and many other actors. The 17 Goals are successors to the 8 Millennium Development Goals (2000) and aim to be a comprehensive set of targets that tackle poverty and inequality. The 17 Goals cover a range of sustainable development1 issues, including poverty and hunger, health, education, gender equality, climate change and others. The 2030 Agenda takes action in critical areas of importance: People, Planet, Prosperity Peace and Partnership. Its objectives include for all human beings to enjoy prosperous and fulfilling lives, to end poverty and hunger in all their forms, to protect the planet from degradation and take urgent action against climate change, and to foster peaceful, just and inclusive societies. By tackling such a wide range of development issues, the Agenda aims by 2030 to make significant progress across the three dimensions of sustainable development: economic, social and environmental. Key features of the 2030 Agenda are its emphasis on universality, inclusiveness and partnerships. The SDGs are applicable to all countries, regardless of development status. This recognizes the shared responsibility the international community has towards sustainable development, as well as the interconnected nature of today’s sustainable development issues. By calling for all countries to play an active role in promoting development, the 2030 Agenda recognizes that issues will only be tackled effectively if a holistic approach is taken. To this end, the SDGs call for a revitalized global partnership for sustainable development.

Given the multi-disciplinary nature of the Goals and their applicability to all countries, making them a reality requires strong and proactive multi-stakeholder collaboration by engaging a wide range of actors in all aspects of implementation.
