2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development

In 2015, the member states of the United Nations adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which address all three dimensions of sustainability - social, environmental and economic - form the core of the Agenda. The SDGs are universally applicable and all countries must work together internationally to implement the 17 SDGs by 2030.   

Although the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are to be achieved by 2030, the mid-term review of the 2030 Agenda is worrying: at the current rate of progress, only 18% of the goals will be implemented by 2030. At the same time, for 15% of the goals we observe a concerning reversal of progress.

The High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF) will be held from 8 to 17 July 2024, under the auspices of the Economic and Social Council. The theme will be "Reinforcing the 2030 Agenda and eradicating poverty in times of multiple crises: the effective delivery of sustainable, resilient and innovative solutions”

Since the adoption of the 2030 Agenda in 2015, IDOS’ research programmes have accompanied the implementation of the Agenda and advised the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) on how to achieve the 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
