The United Nations<\/strong> (UN) adopted in 2015, 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) <\/strong>to guide global transformations that promote sustainable and inclusive societies. These constitute a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and improve the lives and prospects of all people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some time now, Puerto Rico, guided by several non-profit and private institutions, has been working on the issue and promoting sustainable and inclusive practices from its different platforms. The Puerto Rico Community Foundation <\/strong>proposes the development of a Local Voluntary Report <\/strong>(Local Voluntary Report) to get an overview of the situation of the archipelago in relation to these goals. Each goal groups a series of targets and indicators, which allow us to better understand the meaning behind each SDG and how progress can be measured. Learn more about the SDGs here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this space you will find information for adopt and\/or expand<\/strong> the implementation of the SDGs in our Puerto Rican archipelago, and make visible<\/strong> your work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fundaci\u00f3n Comunitaria de Puerto Rico is a philanthropic organization committed to the promotion and strengthening of the SDGs in Puerto Rico.<\/em> and the SDG program is sponsored by <\/em>Mott Foundation<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The document reveals in a single document the situation of Puerto Rico with respect to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals<\/strong> (ODS) and the research was conducted by Dr. Palmira N. R\u00edos Gonz\u00e1lez. This serves as a reference for public discussion on the country's main challenges: poverty, hunger, health, education, gender equality, climate change, energy and economic growth, among others. It also presents the 17 SDGs, framed in six pillars: people, social rights, planet, prosperity, peace and partnerships. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abThe report presents strategic lines of work that could facilitate the development of a country project that upholds the principles of equality for all people and protection of our territory. The Puerto Rican people recognize that we need a new model of sustainable and inclusive development, and the SDGs offer us that opportunity.\u201d. <\/p>\nDr. Palmira R\u00edos, Professor, University of Puerto Rico <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
