Die 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) wurden im Rahmen der Agenda 2030 verabschiedet und beschreiben Zielsetzungen, die weltweit eine sozial, wirtschaftlich und ökologisch nachhaltige Entwicklung fördern sollen. Dabei stehen fünf Kernbotschaften als handlungsleitende Prinzipien im Vordergrund und verbinden die Ziele: People, Planet, Prosperity, Peace, Partnership („5 Ps“). Die Ziele wurden 2015 von allen UN-Mitgliedsstaaten ratifiziert und in einem jährlich erscheinenden Bericht dokumentiert die UN den Fortschritt bei ihrer Umsetzung. Ausgehend von den fünf Kernbotschaften sind Themen der Gerechtigkeit, des Friedens und der globalen Zusammenarbeit zentral, um eine nachhaltige Entwicklung zu fördern.
Die philou. hat sich die SDGs und ihre jeweiligen Unterziele daher einmal näher im Hinblick auf Diversität angeschaut. In insgesamt 6 von 17 Zielen und 9 Unterzielen wird das Wort „Divers*“ verwendet, wobei die deutsche Übersetzung in der Regel „Vielfalt“ beinhaltet.
