Agenda 2030

Nothing less than the ‘transformation of our world’ is at the centre of the 2030 Agenda. Economic progress worldwide should be in harmony with social justice and the protection of natural resources.

Since its adoption by the United Nations General Assembly in 2015, the 2030 Agenda, together with the Paris Climate Agreement, has been the guiding principle of German development cooperation and the overarching framework to which GIZ aligns its work.
