Sustainable Development Goals

In September 2015, the United Nations (UN) officially introduced its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to transform our world and “leave no one behind” by 2030. The goals were adopted by 193 nations, and the UN has called for broad-based support of the SDGs, including active involvement by the private sector. Pfizer supports the SDGs and works to align its scientific focus and corporate objectives to improve global public health impact and sustainable development. Achieving good health and well-being is integral to all 17 of the goals, and is specifically addressed in Goal 3, which states that every person deserves access to quality health care.
