GOAL 17: PARTNERSHIPS FOR THE GOALS

FOSTERING GREATER COLLABORATION

THE AGENDA, WITH ITS 17 SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS

IS UNIVERSAL AND CALLS FOR ACTION BY ALL COUNTRIES, BOTH DEVELOPED COUNTRIES AND DEVELOPING COUNTRIES, TO ENSURE NO ONE IS LEFT BEHIND​

We are all in this together. Multi-stakeholder partnerships will be crucial to leverage the inter-linkages between the Sustainable Development Goals to enhance their effectiveness and impact and accelerate progress in achieving the Goals.

This will be primarily the responsibility of countries. Reviews of progress will need to be undertaken regularly in each country, involving civil society, business and representatives of various interest groups. At the regional level, countries will share experiences and tackle common issues, while on an annual basis, at the United Nations, the progress levels will be reviewed.

Partnerships and Collaboration are centrally important pathways to achieving more progress towards the Goals, between companies, NGOs and communities. 

Goal 17: Revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development

A successful sustainable development agenda requires partnerships between governments, the private sector and civil society. These inclusive partnerships built upon principles and values, a shared vision, and shared goals that place people and the planet at the centre, are needed at the global, regional, national and local level.

Urgent action is needed to mobilize, redirect and unlock the transformative power of trillions of dollars of private resources to deliver on sustainable development objectives. Long-term investments, including foreign direct investment, are needed in critical sectors, especially in developing countries. These include sustainable energy, infrastructure and transport, as well as information and communications technologies. The public sector will need to set a clear direction. Review and monitoring frameworks, regulations and incentive structures that enable such investments must be retooled to attract investments and reinforce sustainable development. National oversight mechanisms such as supreme audit institutions and oversight functions by legislatures should be strengthened.
