History of the World Environment Summit

Toward achieving the SDGs
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the international goals for the period from 2016 to 2030, which were stated in the "2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development" adopted at the UN Summit on September 2015 as the successor to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) formulated in 2001.
The SDGs are a universal set of goals that every country on the planet, from developing to developed, can work towards, and Japan is actively working towards them.
