The
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and targets
will stimulate action over the next fifteen years in areas of critical
importance for humanity and the planet. Please click on the icons at the bottom of the page to learn how ICTs can help achieve each of the SDGs:
- People: We are determined to end poverty and hunger, in all their forms and dimensions, and to ensure that all human beings can fulfil their potential in dignity and equality and in a healthy environment.
- Planet: We are determined to protect the planet from degradation, including through sustainable consumption and production, sustainably managing its natural resources and taking urgent action on climate change, so that it can support the needs of the present and future generations.
- Prosperity: We are determined to ensure that all human beings can enjoy prosperous and fulfilling lives and that economic, social and technological progress occurs in harmony with nature.
- Peace: We are determined to foster peaceful, just and inclusive societies which are free from fear and violence. There can be no sustainable development without peace and no peace without sustainable development.
- Partnership: We are determined to mobilize the means required to implement this Agenda through a revitalised Global Partnership for Sustainable Development, based on a spirit of strengthened global solidarity, focused in particular on the needs of the poorest and most vulnerable and with the participation of all countries, all stakeholders and all people.
All three pillars of
sustainable development – economic development, social inclusion and
environmental protection – need ICTs as key catalysts, and
ICTs will be absolutely crucial for achieving the SDGs. Please click on the icons below to learn more about how ICTs can help achieve each of the SDGs
