Abstract

At the 70th Session of the United Nations General Assembly, held on September 25, 2015, at the United Nations Headquarters, Thailand, along with 193 United Nation (UN) member states, signed and adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. This global development framework aims to achieve sustainable social, economic, and environmental development by 2030, ensuring that no one is left behind. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which serve as a guide for all countries to work together, consist of 17 main goals and 169 SDG targets that are universal, interconnected, and mutually reinforcing. And, there are also 247 indicators designed to monitor and evaluate the progress of development. The SDGs can be grouped according to five interconnected dimensions, known as the 5Ps: People: Focus on developing and eradicating poverty and hunger and reducing inequality within society. Planet: Emphasize the protection and preservation of natural resources and climate for future generations. Prosperity: Promote well-being and a harmonious coexistence with nature. Peace: Uphold principles of peaceful coexistence, a peaceful society, and non-discrimination. Partnership: Foster collaboration among all sectors to drive the sustainable development agenda forward.
