Synopsis: This book introduces the reader to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in an accessible and concise way, examining sustainable development from an international law and policy perspective.The SDGs seek to stimulate social, economic and environmental action to achieve peace and prosperity for all people and the planet. The book examines the SDGs in an approachable and engaging way, situating the goals in the broader context of international law and policy efforts to achieve sustainable development. Beginning by exploring the background to the SDGs, the book includes the historical, politico-legal and developmental context, their broad scope, and how they are enabled, measured and tracked. It then discusses the SDGs thematically, explaining how they are underpinned by and contribute to international law and policy, as well as exploring the interlinkages between the goals and targets. Finishing with a future-focused perspective, the book suggests opportunities and initiatives which can advance the SDGs.The book will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in the field of international law, environmental studies and sustainable development.
