The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (2030 Agenda) and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) embody the common aspirations of people around the world for a better and more sustainable future by 2030. The Global Development Initiative (GDI) was subsequently proposed by China in 2021 to accelerate the realisation of the 2030 Agenda.
In order to achieve the SDGs, the world needs the concerted efforts of all generations, including the youth. At the same time, one of the main guiding principles of the 2030 Agenda is the assurance that “no one will be left behind”. The universal nature of the 2030 Agenda entails that all generations, including the youth, should be considered across all goals and targets.
