The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), officially known as Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, are an intergovernmental set of aspiration Goals with 169 targets. The Goals are contained in paragraph 51 United Nations Resolution A/RES/70/1 of 25 September 2015.〔http://www.un.org/ga/search/view_doc.asp?symbol=A/RES/70/1&Lang=E〕 The Resolution is a broader intergovernmental agreement that, while acting as the Post 2015 Development Agenda (successor to the Millennium Development Goals), builds on the Principles agreed upon under Resolution A/RES/66/288, popularly known as The Future We Want.〔http://www.un.org/ga/search/view_doc.asp?symbol=A/RES/66/288&Lang=E, adopted on 27 July 2012 during the Rio +20 Summit.〕 On 19 July 2014, the UN General Assembly's Open Working Group on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) forwarded a proposal for the SDGs to the Assembly. The proposal contained 17 goals with 169 targets covering a broad range of sustainable development issues. These included ending poverty and hunger, improving health and education, making cities more sustainable, combating climate change, and protecting oceans and forests.〔(Press release - UN General Assembly’s Open Working Group proposes sustainable development goals, 19. July 2014 )〕 On 4 December 2014, the UN General Assembly accepted the Secretary-General's Synthesis Report which stated that the agenda for the post-2015 SDG process would be based on the OWG proposals.〔(Synthesis report of the Secretary-General on the post-2015 sustainable development agenda )〕 The Intergovernmental Negotiations on the Post 2015 Development Agenda (IGN) began in January 2015 and ended in August 2015. Following the negotiations, a final document was adopted at the UN Sustainable Development Summit September 25–27, 2015 in New York, USA.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.undp.org/content/undp/en/home/presscenter/pressreleases/2015/09/24/undp-welcomes-adoption-of-sustainable-development-goals-by-world-leaders.html )〕 The title of the agenda is ''Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development''〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/post2015/transformingourworld )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/26/world/breakdown-of-un-sustainable-development-goals.html?_r=0 )〕 Goals 1-6 directly address health disparities, primarily in developing countries. These six goals address key issues in global public health and public health: Poverty, Hunger and food security, Health, Education, Gender equality and women's empowerment, and water and sanitation. == Background == The history of the SDGs can be traced to 1972 when governments met under the auspices of the United Nations Human and Environment Conference, to consider the rights of the human family to a healthy and productive environment.〔http://www.uncsd2012.org/history.html.〕 It was not until 1983 that the United Nations agreed to create the World Commission on Environment and Development as an independent body of the UN. In 1992 the first UN conference on Environment and Development was held in Rio. It was here that the first agenda for Environment and Development was developed and adopted, also known as Agenda 21. Twenty years later, a resolution, known as The Future We Want〔https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/futurewewant.html〕 was reached by member states. Among the key themes agreed on were on poverty eradication, energy, water and sanitation, health, and human settlement. Paragraph 246 of the Future We Want outcome document forms the link between The Rio +20 agreement and the Millennium Development Goals: "We recognize that the development of goals could also be useful for pursuing focused and coherent action on sustainable development." The goals should address and incorporate in a balanced way all three dimensions of sustainable development (environment, economics, and society) and their interlinkages. The development of these goals should not divert focus or effort from the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals" Paragraph 249 states that, "the process needs to be coordinated and coherent with the processes to consider the post-2015 development agenda." Taken together, these two paragraphs paved the way to bring together the development agenda centered on the ''Millennium Development Goals'' (MDGs),〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.undp.org/content/undp/en/home/mdgoverview/mdg_goals/ )〕 which were officially established following the Millennium Summit of the United Nations in 2000, and the agreement under the Future We Want outcome document. The Rio+20 summit also agreed that the process of designing sustainable development goals, should be “action-oriented, concise and easy to communicate, limited in number, aspirational, global in nature and universally applicable to all countries while taking into account different national realities, capacities and levels of development and respecting national policies and priorities”.〔(UN General Assembly Creates Key Group on Rio+20 Follow-up ), Press Release United Nations Division for Sustainable Development, retrieved 26 February 2013.〕 The MDGs were supposed to be achieved by 2015. A further process was needed to agree and develop development goals from 2015-2030. Discussion on the post-2015 framework for international development began well in advance, with the United Nations System Task Team on Post 2015 Development Agenda〔http://www.un.org/en/development/desa/policy/untaskteam_undf/〕 releasing the first report known as Realizing The Future We Want〔http://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/pdf/Post_2015_UNTTreport.pdf.〕 The Report was the first attempt to achieve the requirements under paragraph 246 and 249 of the Future We Want Outcome Document. It identified four dimensions as part of a global vision for sustainable development:Inclusive Social Development, Environmental Sustainability, Inclusive Economic Development, and Peace and Security. Other processes included the UN Secretary General's High Level Panel on Post 2015 Development Agenda,〔http://www.post2015hlp.org/〕 whose report〔http://www.post2015hlp.org/the-report/〕 was submitted to the Secretary General in 2013. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sustainable Development Goals」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
