shine a light on a future of promise and
opportunity. Member States have
responded with the 2030 Agenda for

for people, to end poverty in all its forms.
An agenda for the planet, our common
home. An agenda for shared prosperity,
peace and partnership."

God would find it there."

fidelity to the truth and a much more perfect
purity of conscience."
