This document provides an overview of sustainable development including:
- The concept of sustainable development which meets present needs without compromising future generations.
- The three pillars of sustainability: environmental integrity, social equity, and economic efficiency.
- The 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals for 2015-2030 addressing issues like poverty, hunger, health, education, climate action, and partnerships.
- The principles of a sustainable society including respect for life, improving human life quality, conserving resources and staying within environmental limits.
The term “sustainable development” first came to prominence in the world Conservation Strategy (WCS) in 1980.
It achieved a new status with the publication of two significant reports by Brundtalnd on: North and South: a programme for survival and common crisis (1985) and
Our Common Future (1983) and has gained even greater attention since the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) held in Rio de Jenerio in June 1992.

This artistic presentation was represented to JITS TALK SERIES by IEEE Jayamukhi Student Branch, India. Being an SDG advocate in Pakistan, I enlightened the participants regarding SDGs Objectives, SDGs Interlinkages, activities, scholarships, role of IEEE in SDGs, SDGs Data portals, and statics. I believe this presentation provides the complete understandings of each SDGs and previously MDGs with the evolution of society benefits.
Great thanks to my IEEE mentor Muhammad Mairaj Ul Haque for helping me in the preparations.

3. What is Development?
• Generally Development is the gradual growth of a
situation that becomes more advanced and strong
than previous one.
• Development is intended to bring a positive
change for human being and its surroundings.
Development may take place by bringing about a
change in policy, projects and legislation.

14. The Principles of a
Sustainable society:
• Respect and care for the community of life
• Improve the quality of human life
• Conserve the Earth's vitality and diversity.
• Minimize the depletion of non-renewable
resources.
• Keep within the Earth's carrying capacity.
• Change attitudes and practices
• Enable communities to care for their own
environments
15. Sustainability Principles
Reduce dependence upon
fossil fuel, underground
metals, and minerals
Reduce dependence upon
synthetic chemicals and other
unnatural substances
Reduce encroachment
upon nature
Meet human needs fairly
& efficiently.
16. Five related aspects to the
concept of sustainability
• Economic sustainability
• Social sustainability
• Cultural sustainability
• Political sustainability
• Environmental
sustainability
17. Lets consider some
Examples
• Solar Energy the greatest advantages of solar energy are
that it is completely free and is available in a limitless supply.
Both of these factors provide a huge benefit to consumers and
help reduce pollution. Replacing non-renewable energy with
this type of energy is both environmentally and financially
effective.
• Wind Energy is another readily available wind
energy source. Harnessing is the power of wind energy
necessitates the use of windmills ; however,
due to construction cost and finding a suitable location
this kind of energy is meant to service more than
just the individual.

Development

19. Necessity to achieve
Sustainable Development
Prevent unnecessary pollution and help restore the
environment wherever appropriate.
Present generation should aware for needs of
presence and future generation
And also ensure the productive assets available to
future generation are not.
• Such technologies need to be developed and
implemented which help to conserve resources,

23. Local Level-a plot, a farm or
a village

Loss of soil quality (chemical or physical)
Loss of farm income
24. What is Needed to Achieve
the sustainable development
?
• Eco Friendly
• Present generation should aware for needs of presence
and future generation.
• And also ensure the productive assets available to
future generation are not.
• Such technologies need to be developed and
implemented which help to conserve resources,
• Prevent unnecessary pollution and help restore the
environment wherever appropriate.
30. Suggestions
• We need to spread social awareness to bring
massive change in social attitude.
• Action must be taken against the backdrop of
serious inequities and their impact on the
environment.
• Environment mistakes of the past need not to be
repeated, as past patterns of degradation are not
inevitable.
