Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Agenda 2030
The ‘Agenda 2030’ and its underlying 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were adopted by the member states of the United Nations in 2015. They set out a clear roadmap towards ending extreme poverty, fighting inequality and injustice, and protecting our planet. There are many touchpoints between the SDGs and the world of work, which connects all social partners and is the principal provider of livelihoods and security. It’s crucial, now more than ever, for labour market stakeholders to come together and realise the tremendous opportunity – and responsibility – they have to create a more sustainable future.
