Some Economic Dimensions of Sustainable Development

摘要

We are living today in a world of huge challenges, deep interconnections, profound mutations and global risks under the impact of several factors among which climate change, innovation, increased competition or evolution of technology could be mentioned. In addition, the lessons and consequences of the recent global economic and financial crisis revealed new dimensions, challenges and requirements for sustainable growth. In the context of these challenges and requirements, on 25 September 2015, the United Nations adopted the resolution 'Transforming our World: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development' that sets 17 Sustainable Development Goals with 169 targets in order to allow sustainable development.
