Goal 17: Partnerships for the goals

Revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development 

“We are determined to mobilize the means required to implement this Agenda through a revitalized Global Partnership for Sustainable Development, based on a spirit of strengthened global solidarity, focused in particular on the needs of the poorest and most vulnerable and with the participation of all countries, all stakeholders and all people.” – Preamble to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development

The OSCE partners with the UN and other international organizations, regional and local organizations and agencies, the private sector and academia in order to forge effective responses to security challenges in its region. 

In the environmental field, its partnership with the UN Development Programme, the UN Environment Programme, the UN Economic Commission for Europe and the Regional Environmental Centre for Central and Eastern Europe within the framework of the Environment and Security Initiative (ENVSEC) enables co-ordinated environmental action since 2003.
