What are the Sustainable Development Goals?
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, were adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by 2030.The 17 SDGs are integrated—that is, they recognize that action in one area will affect outcomes in others, and that development must balance social, economic and environmental sustainability.Through the pledge to Leave No One Behind, countries have committed to fast-track progress for those furthest behind first. That is why the SDGs are designed to bring the world to several life-changing ‘zeros’, including zero poverty, hunger, AIDS and discrimination against women and girls.Everyone is needed to reach these ambitious targets. The creativity, knowhow, technology and financial resources from all of society is necessary to achieve the SDGs in every context.

ما هي أهداف التنمية المستدامة؟ تم اعتماد أهداف التنمية المستدامة (SDGs) ، المعروفة أيضًا باسم الأهداف العالمية ، من قبل جميع الدول الأعضاء في الأمم المتحدة في عام 2015 باعتبارها دعوة عالمية للعمل من أجل القضاء على الفقر وحماية كوكب الأرض وضمان تمتع جميع الناس بالسلام والازدهار بحلول عام 2030. تم دمج أهداف التنمية المستدامة السبعة عشر – أي أنها تدرك أن العمل في أحد المجالات سيؤثر على النتائج في مجالات أخرى ، وأن التنمية يجب أن توازن بين الاستدامة الاجتماعية والاقتصادية والبيئية. من خلال التعهد بعدم ترك أي شخص يتخلف عن الركب ، التزمت البلدان بإسراع مسار التقدم لمن هم متأخرون أولاً. ولهذا السبب تم تصميم أهداف التنمية المستدامة لإحضار العالم إلى العديد من “الأصفار” التي تغير الحياة ، بما في ذلك القضاء على الفقر والجوع والإيدز والتمييز ضد النساء والفتيات. الجميع مطلوب للوصول إلى هذه الأهداف الطموحة. يعد الإبداع والمعرفة والتكنولوجيا والموارد المالية من المجتمع بأكمله ضروريًا لتحقيق أهداف التنمية المستدامة في كل سياق. نادر سويدان
