The contract with the future of the planet to ensure a decent life
September 2015 marked a memorable milestone when, meeting in New York at the United Nations General Assembly, 193 states and leaders agreed on the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. A contract with the future of the planet, with which they committed to ensuring a dignified life. A hopeful moment for the world concerned about the situation of inequalities, poverty, hunger, and the destruction of the planet.
This agenda, consisting in 17 objectives and 169 goals, aims, in essence: to end hunger and poverty; to fight against inequalities; to ensure the well-being and health of people and communities; to respect the limits of ecosystems and the Earth; to fight against the climate change; to protect people’s rights; and to guarantee peace and access to justice and build global alliances to achieve them.
