The 17

Sustainable
Development
Goals
MODULE 10
What are the Sustainable
Development Goals?
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, were adopted by the United Nations in 2015
as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and
prosperity. The 17 SDGs are integrated—they recognize that action in one area will affect outcomes in others, and that
development must balance social, economic and environmental sustainability.

Countries have committed to prioritize progress for those who're furthest behind. The SDGs are designed to end hunger,
AIDS, and discrimination against women and girls. The creativity, knowhow, technology and financial resources from all of
society is necessary to achieve the SDGs in every context.

How did COVID-19 affect the
Sustainable Development Goals?
First originating from China as a new type of coronavirus, the COVID-19 virus has
spread to all parts of the world, causing a global pandemic and bringing our
everyday lives to a standstill.
It also affected the SDG process in many ways, introducing factors of pandemic-
driven poverty and economic disruption while at the same time, providing a
window of opportunity for exploring more inclusive and equitable development
models that are underpinned by sustainable consumption and production, as well
as providing alternate methods to implement these goals successfully.
