Purposeful leadership should consider the the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Quote: "The Sustainable Development Goals are a call for action by all countries – poor, rich and middle-income – to promote prosperity while protecting the planet. They recognize that ending poverty must go hand-in-hand with strategies that build economic growth and address a range of social needs including education, health, social protection, and job opportunities, while tackling climate change and environmental protection" Read about the 17 goals at https://lnkd.in/ejeKUVb The site also provides news updates. #SDG #SDGs #sustainabledevelopmentgoals #sustainabledevelopment

Purposeful leaders will benefit from studying the background of, and recent developments around, the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly represents a pivotal moment in the global push to advance the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Since its adoption in 2015 as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the SDGs aim to tackle pressing global challenges such as poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace, and justice. The 2024 session highlights the importance of accelerating progress toward the SDGs, especially considering that the world is nearing the halfway mark toward the 2030 deadline. Many goals are off-track due to economic instability, conflicts, and the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. At Whitmore Consults Ltd, we remain committed to championing efforts towards SDG8 realisation.

Quick Recap on Policy Frameworks ⚡️ Global goals and targets for countries to work towards, often influencing national and international policies and development strategies.  MDGs (2000-2015): 📍A set of eight time-bound goals addressing poverty, hunger, disease, illiteracy, environmental degradation, and discrimination against women.   📍While not explicitly a policy framework, they served as a blueprint for global development efforts and influenced policy decisions in many countries. SDGs (2015-2030):   📍A more comprehensive set of 17 goals aimed at addressing a wider range of global challenges, including poverty, inequality, climate change, and environmental degradation.   📍They are explicitly designed as a policy framework, providing a roadmap for countries to implement policies and strategies that promote sustainable development. Both the MDGs and SDGs have played a significant role in shaping global development policies and mobilizing resources for achieving their goals. They have influenced national development plans, international cooperation, and private-sector investments. #planetaryhealth #planetaryboundaries #sustainability #ClimateAction #carbonfootprint #NetZero #ClimateEmergency #SDG #ESG #GHG #netzero

❔Did you know that in a world where hunger affects a third of humanity, 1 billion meals are wasted every day? 🎯 In 2015, the world decided on the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals to end global poverty, secure equal rights and foster prosperity by 2030. ⚠️ Six years until 2030 - and only 15% of the #SDGs are on track. The world needs renewed urgency now. 📈 The SDGs are the cornerstone of the #2030agenda and reflect an understanding that development everywhere must integrate economic growth, social well-being and environmental protection. They offer the most practical and effective pathway to tackle the causes of poverty, violent conflict, human rights abuses, climate change, and environmental degradation. 🌍 During the Summit of the Future in September, world leaders will come together to discuss how to safeguard #OurCommonFuture by making the UN and our multilateral system more sustainable and fit for the future. #unitednations #globalgoals
