Challenges and opportunities with the 2030 Agenda
While sustainability science increasingly demonstrates
the connections between the social, economic and
ecological dimensions of sustainability, development
practice still largely treats them as separable. The
consequence is that socio-economic development is
maximised while environmental impacts are overlooked.
In order to implement the 2030 Agenda on Sustainable
Development, there is a need to move beyond this
reductionist understanding, and account better for the
close interplay between humans and nature.
