In recent years, major global shocks and setbacks to progress on the Sustainable Development Goals have increasingly underscored our shared vulnerabilities. International cooperation is needed more than ever, yet our collective problem-solving mechanisms do not match the pace or scale of the challenges we face. Today¡¯s complex, interconnected, and rapidly changing world requires a more effective multilateral system ¨C with the United Nations at its core.

Our Common Agenda is aimed at turbocharging the 2030 Agenda and making the Sustainable Development Goals real in the lives of people everywhere.

Because halfway to 2030, we are far off track."

Secretary-General Ant¨®nio Guterres

At the invitation of Member States with the adoption of the UN75 Declaration, the Secretary-General issued Our Common Agenda in 2021, his vision for the future of international cooperation. One of the key objectives of this report is to tackle the obstacles and impediments to the 2030 Agenda, turbocharging action on the Sustainable Development Goals. It provides practical recommendations to fill gaps in global governance in order to take on emerging challenges.
