The document discusses the differences between the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The MDGs were agreed upon in 2000 and focused on targets to be achieved by 2015, while the SDGs were adopted in 2015 and consist of 17 goals with 169 targets to be achieved by 2030 across the areas of poverty, hunger, health, education, gender equality, water, energy, economic growth, infrastructure, inequality, cities, consumption, climate change, oceans, ecosystems and partnerships. Some key differences are that the SDGs include "zero" targets, are more comprehensive and universal in scope, and address additional areas like peace and justice.
