THE 2030 AGENDA AND 17 SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS (SDGS)

The 2030 Agenda with its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a global plan to promote sustainable peace and prosperity and to protect our planet. Since 2016, all countries have been working to translate this shared vision to fight poverty and reduce inequalities into national development plans.

In the following, we present the 17 goals and show you businesses, associations and institutions in Eastern Styria that are already working towards one or more of these goals.
