The 2030 Development Agenda and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have already begun to re-frame sustainable development and corporate sustainability, touching the lives of people everywhere. The scale and ambition of the 2030 Development Agenda creates a tremendous opportunity for the private sector to demonstrate the central role it plays in sustainable development and human prosperity and to serve as an essential partner to bridging the gap in finance and technical capacity necessary to meet the challenge of achieving the SDGs.
This site showcases business' past and continuing contributions to sustainable development through the prism of the SDGs with the goal of stimulating a more productive partnership between the public and private sectors at the UN and at national levels and to demonstrate the need for a proportionate role for business in the negotiations, implementation and follow-up mechanisms of the 2030 Development Agenda at both the UN and at national levels.
Business for 2030 is an official Employee Action of the #Global Goals campaign of Project Everyone and is an official Action Network of the UN Partnerships Registry of the Economic and Social Council.
