Abstract

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were designed to effect a transition to a more sustainable future, covering the period up to 2030. The United Nations called on all governments to pursue these ambitious goals, but also acknowledged the role of the private sector in addressing them. This article assesses the different approaches of eight major industry sectors to the SDGs, and wider issues for the future delivery of the SDGs are identified and discussed.
