Sustainable Development Goals

17 goals to transform our world

The Sustainable Development Goals are a call for action by all countries – poor, rich and middle-income – to promote prosperity while protecting the planet. They recognize that ending poverty must go hand-in-hand with strategies that build economic growth and address a range of social needs including education, health, social protection, and job opportunities, while tackling climate change and environmental protection.

The Decade of Action calls for accelerating sustainable solutions to all the world’s biggest challenges by 2030.

Coping with uncertainty in an age of radical technologies, by the RSA Action and Research Centre.

Readers of this report may be tempted to feel despondent about the future. But so much is still to play for.
