We can be the first generation to end extreme poverty, the most determined generation in history to end injustice and inequality, and the last generation to be threatened by climate change. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) aim to end poverty and hunger, increase access to education, address migration, combat climate change, and reduce inequality. They are increasingly being embraced the world over, not just by governments, but also by civil society, academia, and the private sector, as a way to break down silos and effectively collaborate around a common and universal development agenda.
