Sustainable Development Goals in action
This year’s forum – Sustainable Development Goals in Action: Our World, Our Dignity, Our Future – will focus on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at the heart of the United Nation’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. To achieve the SDGs, the international community will have to include young people as they work together to build a more sustainable future. For its 10th edition, EDD 2016 will be one of the first international conferences to address the way forward for this ambitious 2030 Agenda. The EDD 2016 forum will be shaped by the ‘5 Ps’ outlined in the preamble to the 2030 Agenda – People, Planet, Prosperity, Peace and Partnership.
