Sustainable Development Goals
Historical Background of SDGs
In 2012, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were progressed at the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development. The purpose was to create a set of universal goals that meet severe environmental, political, and economic concerns. The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), which proceeded with global challenges in 2000 to address the indignity of poverty, were replaced by the SDGs. We have to end hunger, achieve full gender equality, improve health services, and get every child into school beyond primary education. The SDGs are also an urgent call to shift the world onto a more sustainable path.
