İnformation on Sustainable Development Goals
Goal 17. Revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development

A successful sustainable development agenda requires partnerships
between governments, the private sector and civil society. These inclusive
partnerships built upon principles and values, a shared vision, and shared
goals that place people and the planet at the centre, are needed at the global,
regional, national and local level. Urgent action is needed to
mobilize, redirect and unlock the transformative power of trillions of dollars
of private resources to deliver on sustainable development objectives.
Long-term investments, including foreign direct investment, are needed in
critical sectors, especially in developing countries. These include sustainable
energy, infrastructure and transport, as well as information and communications
technologies. The public sector will need to set a clear direction. Review and
monitoring frameworks, regulations and incentive structures that enable such
investments must be retooled to attract investments and reinforce sustainable
development. National oversight mechanisms such as supreme audit institutions
and oversight functions by legislatures should be strengthened.
