The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), a UN body responsible for dealing with development issues, particularly international trade, lays out a number of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in its 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. This framework is essentially a global plan to address three pillars of sustainable development, namely economic, social and environmental; successful implementation will require unprecedented cooperation among all actors at national and international levels i.e. private sector and civil society.
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development acknowledges that global trade has served to lift millions out of poverty and remains a significant engine for inclusive economic growth and poverty reduction, whilst also enabling the achievement of SDGs.
