On 25 September 2015, the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development was adopted at a UN summit in New York. It takes the form of a global treaty on the future and contains 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The 2030 Agenda is the first international agreement to link the principle of sustainability with poverty reduction and economic, ecological and social development.

The agenda is intended to help enable all people worldwide to live in dignity. It aims to promote peace and  to ensure that all people can live in freedom and in an intact environment.

The Agenda is aimed at all states in the global community. They are equally called upon to work towards the development goals formulated in it – there is no division into „donors“ and „recipients“ or into „first“, „second“ and „third world“ in the Agenda.
