UN Sustainable Development Goals | Crann Centre Ireland

Crann is proud to be working toward several of the Global Sustainable Development Goals’ targets.

In 2015, world leaders agreed to 17 Global Goals (known as the Sustainable Development Goals or SDGs). These goals were outlined to empower a better world by 2030, by fighting inequality, ending poverty and addressing the urgency of climate change.

According to the UN, “Sustainable development has been defined as development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

Sustainable development calls for concerted efforts towards building an inclusive, sustainable and resilient future for people and planet.”
