SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS

In 2015, more than 190 world leaders committed to 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

to help us all end extreme poverty, fight inequality & injustice,

and fix climate change.

We each have a role to play if we’re going to achieve these goals of a more prosperous, equitable,

and sustainable world.
