What are the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)?

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity. The 17 SDGs are integrated—they recognize that action in one area will affect outcomes in others, and that development must balance social, economic and environmental sustainability.

The achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030 will require all hands-on deck, including from higher education. Faculty Science is committed to support UTM in this endavour.
