Do you know all 17 of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals? And what they hope to achieve?  And how?  And why?

The SDGs are a call to action for the people of the planet in areas that are critically important to a successful and sustainable future for all.  Adopted by all UN Member States in 2015, they evolved out of years of working partnerships by countries and the UN.

The UN recognizes that Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 demonstrates a ‘strong commitment to the achievement of the 2030 Agenda’, incorporating a range of actions that align the Vision with the Agenda. 

Over the next few weeks, the SR Blog will explore what these goals are aiming for, the facts and figures that make achieving them essential, how Vision 2030 links in with all of them and, most importantly, what YOU can do to contribute.  Don’t underestimate the value of the actions of the individual!
