Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

by Ariana Zambada

The 17 SDGs are universal goals that seek to eliminate key development challenges in the world. They appear in Transforming Our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted unanimously by the United Nations in September 2015 after a multi-year process of consultation and negotiation. SDG target 16.2 and its related targets focus on eliminating violence against children.
