The United Nations summit, aimed at adopting the development agenda for the next fifteen years, took place from September 25 to 27. The meeting, held at the UN headquarters in New York, saw around 140 heads of state and government discuss and approve the new set of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which will replace the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) due to expire at the end of this year. By promoting sustainable and inclusive development, SDGs are the expression of a new vision of development able to foster economic goals while addressing the major societal and environmental challenges of our time. Besides the words, however, the real challenge will be implementation.
