Description

Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2017 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Development Politics, grade: 70%, Stellenbosch Universitiy, language: English, abstract: On September 25, 2015, the General Assembly of the United Nations have agreed on the Agenda 2030 with the forward-thinking title "Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development." Central Element of the Agenda are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals with their 169 targets. Different than its predecessor, the Millennium Goals, the new plan does not focus on poverty only, but envisions a sustainable future thoroughly. This means a future, that meets present socio-economic needs without compromising the ability of future generations and the environment. The target is clear, but challenging, though. As the goals exceed the Millennium goals in their scope, many critics state that they are too extensive and therefore unobtainable, bearing in mind the outcome of the millennium goals, which were not obtained completely. However, the goals create a vision towards the world community should work, clearly acknowledging that the targets ahead are strongly interlinked. Today, nearly a quarter century after Apartheid, that left the economic and social situation defragmented, South Africa still attempts to overcome the shadow of the past. Though South Africa is one of the most sophisticated economies of the African continent, many challenges are ahead. It is difficult to point out the most significant sustainable development goals for the country, as they correlate and overlap, building up on each other. However, the most urgent targets are those of fundamental issues that build a basis for the work ahead and target elementary human needs. Therefore, this strategic paper will focus on the goals 1 (poverty), 2 (hunger), 6 (water), 11 (sustainable cities) and 16 (sustainable societies).
