These goals are meant to encourage individuals, businesses, schools, NGOs and governments across the world to work together to solve social and environmental issues, with a target date of completion by 2030. The Sustainable Development Goals are the succession to the earlier Millennium Development Goals project.
The United Nations Global Compact is a global voluntary initiative.

Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) is a project of the UN Global Compact.
