The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are also reasonably called the Global Goals. They were adopted by the UN in 2015 and formed an international agenda to improve the quality of life for future generations. This ambitious goal requires a coordinated partnership between all countries.

For such a partnership is it crucial to ensure the access to national indicators and data to representatives of other countries. The Open SDG platform is the result of collaboration between the UK Office for National Statistics, US government, the nonprofit Center for Open Data Enterprise and members of the Open SDG community providing a convenient way to work with this data. Ukraine has recently joined the platform, which already unites dozens of countries. Such global instruments are an important aspect of the implementation of Goal 17 «Partnership for Sustainable Development».

 

Ukrainian-English interpretation will be provided during the event.
