The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development that established the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) was born out of the need to pursue a socially inclusive and environmentally sustainable economic growth in an integrated manner. The normative basis of sustainable development is the pursuit of a virtuous global society supported by three core beliefs: i. There should not be poverty in the midst of plenty, ii. The global community of nations must foster social cohesion and mobility, reduce inequalities, and end all forms of discrimination within and across societies, iii. Humans have a moral obligation to preserve planet Earth. These economic, social, and environmental goals are interrelated and therefore call for integrated solutions. They all require good governance to be practised and the science of complex systems to be understood.1 The SDGs were first formally discussed at the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development held in Rio de Janeiro in June 2012 (Rio+20), and then at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in September 2014.
