Foundational primer on the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development


The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) primer aims to establish a common base of understanding and approach for the United Nations system in supporting the 2030 Agenda. It is primarily meant to inform the programmes and actions of all United Nations entities, including in their engagement with government and civil society partners. The call for a decade of action for the delivery of the SDGs demands engaging all sectors of society in transformative action. 

This course is part of a learning path leading to a professional certificate in the Sustainable Development Goals.


Target audience:

  • All development practitioners, including those working in government, civil society, academia and United Nations organizations.
