Adopted by 193 UN-member countries on 25 September 2015, the convention titled “Transforming our World: 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” covers 17 Sustainable Development Goals and 169 targets.
Setting out a sustainability agenda that is far more comprehensive, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) went beyond the UN Millennium Development Goals.
SDGs are aimed at eradicating poverty and at realizing development for all as a universal necessity. The global consensus achieved around the SDGs marked a major turning point for shifting the world onto a more inclusive and sustainable growth path.
The Bank’s activities that are considered to contribute to the SDGs within the scope of its service cycle are addressed in detail in different sections of this report.SKA |
