The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development was adopted by Heads of State and Government at the United Nations Sustainable Development Summit on 25 September 2015.Sink 17 Sustainable Development Goals divided into 169 targets Addressing the challenges of globalization based on the three pillars of sustainability: social, environmental, and economic.
The 2030 Agenda and the SDGs derived from it are A highly innovative concept for sustainable development:
- Combining environmental protection with the fight against extreme poverty in the face of climate change.
- Transcend sustainable development risks for all countries around the world through a holistic and universal approach.
- It resulted from an unprecedented consultation among civil society actors, the private sector, local governments, researchers and others.
The 2030 Agenda organizes action around five pillars: planet, people, prosperity, peace and partnership.
Protecting our planet is essential to meeting the needs of current and future generations. This requires preserving air quality, sustainable access to food and water, and rich and resourceful biodiversity. Reducing climate change is necessary to achieve these goals and protect the public from climate disasters.
The sustainable development of a nation depends on the principles of equality and dignity of people. Fighting poverty, ensuring universal access to health care and food, and ensuring quality education and gender equality are prerequisites for a fair and sustainable society.
National development must establish inclusive and green prosperity. To ensure peace and prosperity, science, technology and innovation must serve everyone for human-scale development.
Reducing conflict and building and consolidating peace are essential to establishing prosperous and sustainable societies, as development is impossible without security, and security is impossible without development. .
Achieving the SDGs requires a new system of global solidarity and partnership. Inclusive partnerships built on a common vision and common goals that put people and planet at the center are essential at global, regional, national and local levels. This solidarity is needed not only between nations, but also with civil society, NGOs and the private sector.
At the international level, the High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development plays an important role in following up the implementation of the SDGs and provides an annual forum for all sustainable development organizations and other stakeholders. We offer
Interagency coordination
Efforts to achieve the 17 SDGs in France are being coordinated by the Interministerial Representative for Sustainable Development (DIDD) is mandated by the Prime Minister and works closely with the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs (MEAE) on international aspects. The representative will manage a network of senior sustainable development officials who coordinate all sustainable development issues within the various ministries. Work to map public policies related to SDGs We need to work to ensure that ministries' policies can be seen through the conceptual matrix provided by all SDGs.
At the national level, the National Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies (INSEE) is responsible for data production and coordination with the statistical departments of the French governments. Data on the indicators were published in March 2018 and are available on the INSEE website (in French).
A consultation will soon be launched under the auspices of the National Council for Statistics and Information (CNIS) to propose relevant indicators in the framework of national follow-up of the implementation of the SDGs.
Mobilizing resources to support achieving the SDGs internationally
France's financial commitments for development were unveiled by the Interministerial Committee for International Cooperation and Development (CICID) on 30 November 2016. Increase the French Development Agency (AFD) Group's funding for sustainable development by €4 billion by 2020, 2 billion euros of which will be allocated to combating climate change. At the same time, an additional 400 million euros will be allocated to the most vulnerable countries in the form of bilateral subsidies. France is stepping up efforts to combat climate change by pledging 5 billion euros by 2020 and promoting financing that leverages climate change co-benefits.
close relationship established between the two December 6, 2016 AFD and the Cargo Depository Corporation (CDC) will contribute to improving the efficiency and responsiveness of the system for financing sustainable development.. Both institutions will strengthen their mutual efforts through synergies in leveraging their respective expertise, networks, and funding sources.
citizen awareness
in view of Involvement of civil society, the private sector and the public is essential To successfully achieve the SDGs, France is committed to a more inclusive decision-making and action process than ever before.of National Council for Development and International Solidarity (CNDSI) and National Council for Ecological Transition (CNTE) are two recommended forums for communication regarding the implementation of the SDGs.
The establishment of a day of cooperation on the SDGs on 18 April 2016 also helped to continue regular discussions with civil society. Regarding the implementation of the SDGs, we focus on co-construction and collective knowledge for collective mobilization to achieve the goals.
Transparency in high-level political forums on sustainable development
In July 2016, France joined 21 other like-minded countries (China, Colombia, Egypt, Estonia, Finland, Georgia, Germany, Madagascar, Mexico, Montenegro, Morocco, Norway, Philippines, South Korea, Samoa, Sierra Leone, Switzerland, Togo, Turkey, Uganda, Venezuela).
The French national review focused on: Climate and the Paris Agreement, women empowerment and education. He also emphasized the horizontal nature of the agenda, to which France is particularly sensitive, such as combating climate change, ecological transition, and efforts to support jobs and reduce inequality.
This year, 44 countries voluntarily participated and presented their national reviews at the HLPF, which will meet in New York in July.
Education and innovation to support sustainable development
The new framework provided by the 2030 Agenda and the SDGs is a unique opportunity for all citizens to contribute to creating a sustainable world. Political and financial solutions alone are not sufficient to address current environmental challenges. Achieving the SDGs requires changing our lifestyles and patterns of production and consumption. that's why sustainable development education at every level and innovation It is the center of development policy. European Sustainable Development Week, from 30 May to 5 June, is an important time of the year to continue discussion and thinking around the SDGs.
