Objective
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, was adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by 2030. After the culmination of the first five years and reviews, the UN has given a clarion call for a global effort during the next decade to achieve the Goals by 2030.
Niti Aayog, as the torch-bearer for the SDGs in our country, has been engaging all stakeholders with an aim of achieving the Global Goals in right earnest. Formation of State Level High Power Committee to oversee the implementation of programmes and progress towards the Goals is seen as a step in the right direction. Efforts are on to localise SDGs up to the block level, with synchronisation of the targets and indicators. Emphasis is also on the partnership between the Government, Civil Society and Businesses, wherein CSR has a vital role to play.
This event envisages to elaborate ways by which CSR activities could be leveraged to achieve the Global Goals during this “The Decade of Action”.
