The Sustainable Development Goals—officially known as "Transforming our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development"—are an intergovernmental set of 17 aspirational goals and 169 targets. Building post-2015 on the accomplishments of the Millennium Development Goals, but cognizant also of their shortcomings, they combine economic, environmental, and social goals that now apply to all countries. They were developed in a broad two-year consultation process during which civil society, citizens, academics, scientists, and the private sector of all countries had the opportunity to contribute.
Can the success of one social or economic goal affect the success of many others? According to this report, yes. Policy goals cannot be addressed individually, especially as the world becomes more resource constrained. Interconnected strategies and cross-sector co-operation are becoming increasingly important.
Evolving development goals in an evolving world is an EIU report, sponsored by Microsoft, that explores how policymakers in both the developed and developing world prioritise social and environmental goals.
A NEW GLOBAL PARTNERSHIP: ERADICATE POVERTY AND TRANSFORM ECONOMIES THROUGH S...Dr Lendy Spires
Our vision and our responsibility are to end extreme poverty in all its forms in the context of sustainable development and to have in place the building blocks of sustained prosperity for all.” 1 The Panel came together with a sense of optimism and a deep respect for the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The 13 years since the millennium have seen the fastest reduction in poverty in human history: there are half a billion fewer people living below an international poverty line of $1.25 a day.
Child death rates have fallen by more than 30%, with about three million children’s lives saved each year compared to 2000. Deaths from malaria have fallen by one quarter. This unprecedented progress has been driven by a combination of economic growth, better policies, and the global commitment to the MDGs, which set out an inspirational rallying cry for the whole world. Given this remarkable success, it would be a mistake to simply tear up the MDGs and start from scratch. As world leaders agreed at Rio in 2012, new goals and targets need to be grounded in respect for universal human rights, and finish the job that the MDGs started.
Central to this is eradicating extreme poverty from the face of the earth by 2030. This is something that leaders have promised time and again throughout history. Today, it can actually be done. So a new development agenda should carry forward the spirit of the Millennium Declaration and the best of the MDGs, with a practical focus on things like poverty, hunger, water, sanitation, education and healthcare. But to fulfil our vision of promoting sustainable development, we must go beyond the MDGs. They did not focus enough on reaching the very poorest and most excluded people. They were silent on the devastating effects of conflict and violence on development.
The importance to development of good governance and institutions that guarantee the rule of law, free speech and open and accountable government was not included, nor the need for inclusive growth to provide jobs. Most seriously, the MDGs fell short by not integrating the economic, social, and environmental aspects of sustainable development as envisaged in the Millennium Declaration, and by not addressing the need to promote sustainable patterns of consumption and production. The result was that environment and development were never properly brought together. People were working hard – but often separately – on interlinked problems. So the Panel asked some simple questions: starting with the current MDGs, what to keep, what to amend, and what to add. In trying to answer these questions, we listened to the views of women and men, young people, parliamentarians, civil society organisations, indigenous people and local communities, migrants, experts, business, trade unions and governments.

This report is based on a master set of data that has been compiled by an Inter-Agency and Expert
Group on MDG Indicators led by the Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United
Nations Secretariat, in response to the wishes of the General Assembly for periodic assessment of
progress towards the MDGs. The Group comprises representatives of the international
organizations whose activities include the preparation of one or more of the series of statistical indicators that were identified as appropriate for monitoring progress towards the MDGs, as reflected in the list below. A number of national statisticians and outside expert advisers also contributed.

Young people, especially those who will become young adults during the 15-year time span covered by the SDGs have the inalienable right to be informed about this turning point in international development. With half of the world under the age of 30, it is crucial that this agenda puts young people at the forefront of change and development. These youngsters from around the world have already contributed to the post-2015 process in an unprecedented way, identifying and shaping the new development priorities – now they want to ensure they are seen as equal partners in their implementation and monitoring.
E-government—digital interactions between governments and people—varies greatly among and within regions, but most countries are making progress on providing greater access, according to the 2014 UN E-Government Survey launched today. The findings show that the Republic of Korea tops the global e-government ranking, and that Europe remains first among regions.
The report also shows that many countries are expanding electronic participation, utilizing more mobile and social media tools, expanding usage and making more government data available online. However, challenges remain, such as lack of resources, digital inequalities and a lack of leadership for e-government.
“E-government holds tremendous potential to improve the way that governments deliver public services and enhance broad stakeholder involvement in public service,” said Wu Hongbo, Under-Secretary-General for Economic and Social Affairs and Secretary-General for the International Conference on Small Island Developing States.

Prepare a two to three page report titled Environmental Sustainabi.pdfkavithaarp
Prepare a two to three page report titled \"Environmental Sustainability in the European Union
(EU).\" The report should be based on the publicly available information that you obtained. You
may use the report published by the European Commission.
Solution
The United Nations (UN) Conference on Environment and Development held in Rio de Janeiro
in 1992, Eurostat started working closely with the UN Commission on Sustainable Development
on global indicators of sustainable development. Sustainable development policy aims to achieve
a continuous improvement in citizens’ quality of life and wellbeing. This involves the pursuit of
economic progress while safeguarding the natural environment and promoting social justice. The
economic, environmental and social dimensions are all part of the EU Sustainable Development
Strategy adopted in 2001 and renewed in 2006 . The weak economic activity in the short term
has reduced some pressure on the environment, but overall progress is mixed regarding the
environmental dimension of sustainable development, the headline indicators show mixed
results. Environmental indicators linked to economic performance have developed favorably in
the short term, but this is mainly due to reduced economic activity. This is evident in the
reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption. Despite some mildly positive
long-term developments, the pressure on natural resources has increased in the short term.
Clearly favourable developments have been observed for one of the two headline indicators of
the climate change and energy theme. Greenhouse gas emissions have steadily decreased in the
long run. If this trend continues, the EU is likely to surpass its Europe 2020 target of reducing
emissions by 20 % compared with 1990 levels. In 2012, the EU was only two percentage points
away from its target. The economic recovery could therefore increase GHG emissions in the
coming years. Energy consumption of transport relative to GDP has followed a moderately
unfavorable long-term trend but a clearly favorable short-term trend. The indicator has fallen
more or less continuously since 2000, which does not necessarily reflect better environmental
outcomes.
For some of the indicators the issue of interest of two trends is usually an economic variable and
the environmental variable that shows the environmental pressures exerted by the economic
activity. These are called decoupling indicators because they show the strength of the link
between the economic and the environmental variable. In relation to sustainable development,
the aim is to achieve a decoupling of these two variables, so that continued economic growth
does not lead to a further increase in environmental degradation. The evaluation is considered
favourable if the environmental pressure variable is decreasing and unfavourable if it is
increasing. Depending on the direction and magnitude of change in the pressure variable in
relation to the driving force, there are fou.

Last year, 2015, was a milestone for sustainability with
crucial and unprecedented agreements by the international
community, including the Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs)1 and the Paris Agreement on climate change action.
The year 2016 now calls for translating these achievements
into action to achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable
Development.
Ahead of the publication of this year's country recommendations for the European Semester, this paper identifies priorities and modalities for the reform of the Semester so that it becomes a key instrument for operationalising the SDGs and implementing the European Green Deal at Member State level.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.
