Climate change

To advance on sustainable development and climate action, a number of global frameworks have been adopted. These include the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its specific Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 6 and 13, to ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all, and to take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts, respectively. The Paris Agreement on climate change and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030 have also set ambitious climate-related goals and targets. These agreements can, in many ways, be considered as a ‘partnership’ among countries.

Sustainable Development Goals:

Good Health and Well-Being

Clean Water and Sanitation

Responsible Consumption and Production
