Global Sustainable Development Report 2023 : Times of crisis, times of change : science for accelerating transformations to sustainable development

Abstract

This report provides a synthesis of the key transformative shifts needed across different entry points (human well-being and capabilities, sustainable and just economies, food systems and healthy nutrition, energy decarbonization with universal access, urban and peri-urban development, and global environmental commons), as well as a framework for understanding how those transformations may unfold over time. It also presents practical examples and tools for fostering leadership and enhancing human capacities to engage with the acceleration mindset required to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals – locally, nationally and globally.
