Sustainable Development Goals
As we embark on this great collective journey, we pledge that no one will be left behind. We wish to see the goals and targets met for all nations and peoples and for all segments of society.

What we work on
We’re bringing the Bond network together so that member organisations can make the most effective contribution to the goals.
We’re working to ensure the principle of “leave no one behind” is not forgotten, and we’re helping members learn from each other’s experiences of the challenges of this ambitious approach.
We’re engaging with the UK government to help them “bring the goals home”: we host the secretariat for the All-Party Parliamentary Group on the SDGs and we provide policy briefings and recommendations.
We’re working with colleagues around the world to ensure all governments stick to their commitments.
The impact of our work
The SDGs are universal goals which involve and apply to the entire world. This agenda has the power to transform our world and deliver a fairer and more sustainable future for all. That's why we take the SDGs seriously.
We have held the government to account on the SDGs, highlighting progress reports, publishing our own reports and hosting events to keep the goals high on the agenda. We host the All Parliamentary Group on the SDGs, and we work tirelessly to engage with our members on the subject.
