The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), established by the United Nations in 2015, form a global blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all by 2030. Comprised of 17 interlinked goals, the SDGs address a broad range of global challenges.
The 17 SDGs are:

- Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure

- Partnerships for the Goals
By promoting a holistic approach, fostering global partnerships, and emphasizing environmental sustainability and equity, the SDGs offer a roadmap for creating a more just, prosperous, and sustainable future for all. As the 2030 deadline approaches, it is imperative that all stakeholders redouble their efforts to achieve these transformative goals and ensure a better world for generations to come.
