Sustainable Development Goals
World leaders came together in 2015 and made a historic promise to secure the rights and well-being of everyone on a healthy, thriving planet when they adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).The Agenda remains the world’s roadmap for ending poverty, protecting the planet and tackling inequalities. The 17 SDGs, the cornerstone of the Agenda, offer the most practical and effective pathway to tackle the causes of violent conflict, human rights abuses, climate change and environmental degradation and aim to ensure that no one will be left behind. The SDGs reflect an understanding that sustainable development everywhere must integrate economic growth, social well-being and environmental protection.
MPU actively supports the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals by consistently organising a variety of activities to nurture students’ awareness of sustainability and sense of social responsibility and seamlessly integrates the UN SDGs into education and student activities. Through these efforts, it sows the seeds of sustainability among students, energises the campus with a green spirit, and illuminates a sustainable future for the long-term development of our planet.
