Global Sustainable Development Report (GSDR) 2023

[1] The Global Sustainable Development Report (GSDR) originated in “The Future We Want,” the outcome of    the 
Rio+20 conference on sustainable development, when Member States were laying the groundwork for  the 2030 
Agenda for Sustainable Development and the 17 associated Sustainable Development Goals   (SDGs). The 
negotiators knew that the 2030 Agenda would be complex, and unprecedented in ambition, and that a siloed 
[5] approach to development would not be adequate. They recognised the power of science to understand and 
navigate relationships among social, environmental and economic development objectives, and so they called 
for a report to strengthen the science-policy interface. In 2016, Member States decided that the report should 
be produced once every four years, to inform the quadrennial SDG review deliberations (SDG Summit) at the 
General Assembly, and that it should be written by an Independent Group of Scientists appointed by the 
[10] Secretary-General. They mandated that the Group would  consist of 15 experts representing a variety of  
backgrounds, scientific disciplines and institutions, ensuring geographical and gender balance. The 2019 Global 
Sustainable Development Report, The Future is Now: Science for Achieving Sustainable Development, was the 
first report prepared by an Independent Group of Scientists appointed by the United Nations Secretary-General. 
The second Global Sustainable Development Report written by an Independent Group of Scientists is slated for 
[15] release in September 2023.

 

The 2023 Global Sustainable Development Report will be launched as the world approaches the half-way point 
of the 2030 Agenda and struggles to rebuild in the aftermath (or in the midst) of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this 
context, practical solutions that can accelerate progress on the SDGs will be urgently needed. The 2023 Report 
will build on the 2019 Report providing evidence that can help decision-makers to accelerate action and 
[20] overcome impediments that stand in the way of progress on sustainable development. The focus will be on 
accelerating transformation through important entry points and enabling science to support this acceleration.
