Launched in 2015, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of 17 global goals created by the United Nations through a process involving its 193 Member States along with NGOs and the private sector. The goals contains a broad range of sustainable development issues, including poverty and hunger, improving health and education, making cities more sustainable, combating climate change, and protecting oceans and forests.
