Abstract

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is an ambitious but noble agenda to bring global community together in addressing the complexity of unsustainable development issues taking place around the world. The world has seen many global agendas championed by various international organisations but not few of them have failed because of the lack of support from participating countries. In many cases, although the agenda has successfully been cascaded to national level, it stays at planning level. Hence SDG will not be achieved, or it will take longer time to reach its target. There can be at least two factors for this; political will and insufficient knowledge and capacity to translate the agenda into action.
