Dr. Urvashi Anand Ohri


 In 2015, in order to address the key sustainability challenges, more than 190 countries
adopted 17 global Sustainable Development Goals.
 The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) define global sustainable development
priorities and aspirations for 2030 and seek to mobilize global efforts around a common set
of goals and targets.
 The SDGs call for worldwide action among governments, businesses and civil society to
end poverty and create a life of dignity and opportunity for all, within the boundaries of the
planet.
 The SDGs and targets are integrated and indivisible, global in nature and universally
applicable, taking into account different national realities, capacities and levels of
development and respecting national policies and priorities.
 Targets are defined as aspirational and global, with each government setting its own
national targets in national planning processes, policies and strategies, which are guided
by the global level of ambition.
