In September 2015, world leaders at a historic United Nations summit adopted the global plan of action: Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
The Sustainable Development Goals are a call to action from all countries — poor, rich and middle-income.They are intended to improve well-being and protect our planet. States recognize that measures to eliminate poverty must be taken in parallel with efforts to increase economic growth and address a range of issues in the areas of education, health, social protection, and employment, as well as combating climate change and protecting the environment. In accordance with the commitments made, over the next 10 years, countries will step up their efforts to eradicate poverty in all its forms, combat inequality, address climate change, and ensure that no one is behind. The final document "Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda" contains 17 global goals, 169 related goals and 232 indicators.
The Kyrgyz Republic, along with other countries, has committed itself to contributing to the achievement of the global SDGs, as well as to monitoring indicators of SDG achievement. In this way, under the National Development Strategy of the Kyrgyz Republic 2018-2040, Kyrgyzstan will strive to achieve the adopted Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 Agenda.
