TIMES OF CRISIS, TIMES OF CHANGE: SCIENCE FOR ACCELERATING TRANSFORMATIONS TO SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

NOTE

In the outcome document of the Rio+20 Conference, in 2012, entitled "The future we want", and again in "Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development", in 2015, United Nations Member States decided that the High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development would be informed by the Global Sustainable Development Report. In the Ministerial Declaration of the 2016 Forum, Member States decided that the report would be produced quadrennially by an independent group of scientists appointed by the United Nations Secretary-General and comprising 15 experts representing a variety of backgrounds, scientific disciplines and institutions, with geographical and gender balance.

This report, Times of crisis, times of change: Science for accelerating transformations to sustainable development, is the second quadrennial Global Sustainable Development Report prepared by an independent group of scientists. The first report, The future is now: Science for achieving sustainable development, was published in 2019.
