About the project

This project was developed for the 3rd UN World Data Forum in Bern in 2021 and further expanded for the 5th UN World Data Forum in Medellin, Colombia, in 2024. The website SDG Experience serves as the digital counterpart to the book series SDGraphical and intends to visually depict major developments in the 17 Goals of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in an attractive way, true to the motto that a good statistical graphic often says more than 1000 data entries.

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development

In September 2015, the Member States of the United Nations adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The 2030 Agenda applies to all countries – in the North and the South – and sets out the priorities for sustainable development.

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with their 169 targets, form the core of the 2030 Agenda. They balance the economic, social and ecological dimensions of sustainable development, and place the fight against poverty and sustainable development on the same agenda for the first time with the ‘5 Ps’: People, Planet, Prosperity, Peace, Partnership. Today, the 2030 Agenda is a social contract between societies and states, which forms a framework at local, regional, national and multinational levels.
