Sustainable Development Goals
What is it?
In 2015 the 2030 Agenda was defined, consisting of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The 2030 Agenda addresses several dimensions of sustainable development (social, economic, environmental).
The Sustainable Development Goals are based on progress and lessons learned from the joint work of governments and citizens around the world.
The 2030 Agenda and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals are the shared vision for humanity, an initiative that aims to mobilize a global movement of sustainable companies, better institutions, governments, civil society, and other stakeholders to create a better world.
We know that everything is interconnected and that it is possible to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals in a direct or indirect way. With this page we intend to give a brief description of each SDG and provide a mapping of the initiatives we have identified that contribute to them.
