The Blueprint for a Better World 17 Goals
Global Goals
In 2015, 193 world leaders agreed to 17 ambitious goals to achieve a more equitable future by 2030. The Global Goals are within our reach, but we must remain committed—embracing what works and addressing what doesn’t, while holding ourselves and others accountable. Join us as we strive to create a better world.
Goalkeepers work in support of the Global Goals, which range from ending extreme poverty and hunger to improving healthy living, education, gender equality, access to clean water and sanitation.
1 No Poverty
We must afford all people a chance to prosper by reducing poverty overall by at least 50% and eradicating extreme poverty completely.
2 Zero Hunger
We must feed the world’s population by improving food security, nutrition, and sustainable agriculture.
3 Good Health and Well-Being
We must promote healthier living by providing modern, efficient, preventative medical care to all people, everywhere.
4 Quality Education
We must ensure that equitable educational opportunities are available to all, unlocking the intellect and imagination necessary for a healthy society to thrive.
5 Gender Equality
We must guarantee equal rights and respect for all by defending political, economic, and social equality for women.
6 Clean Water and Sanitation
We must reduce the suffering and death spread by waterborne diseases by increasing access to clean water and improving sanitation.
