What are the United Nations SDGs and The SDG Moment?

The United Nations SDGs are a set of interconnected global community goals that address universal human problems such as poverty and disease, as well as global environmental, economic, and social issues. It is widely recognised as a global standard for sustainable management, with 17 core aims and 169 specific targets (ESGs). The SDG Moment, which will take place at the start of the United Nations General Assembly's High-Level Week, will help to shine a light on the SDGs on an annual basis. It occurs at a time when the world is experiencing a deeply unequal reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic, which risks establishing a two-tier recovery with serious consequences for the SDGs' achievement, particularly in developing nations.

The Moment, convened by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, will give a forum for world leaders to display the bold ideas, actions, and solutions required to stop the COVID-19 pandemic and put the world on track to achieve the SDGs. The SDG Moment event held ahead of important meetings on food systems, climate, energy, jobs, and social protection, is expected to provide the impetus needed to fulfil the Decade of Action and keep the SDGs' promises.

The event will feature more than 30 heads of state, a key debate with UN officials on the COVID-19 Response and Recovery, and a musical performance by BTS, the President of the Republic of Korea's Special Presidential Envoy for Future Generation and Culture. Leaders from industry, public society, local governments, the SDG Advocates, and the United Nations will discuss how to scale up solutions.
