ICAO and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

ICAO’s Strategic Objectives are strongly linked to 15 of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The Organization is fully committed to work in close cooperation with States and other UN Bodies to support related targets.

 

ICAO is also an official observer on the Inter-agency and Expert Group on Sustainable Development Goal Indicators and is the custodian agency of global indicator 9.1.2  Passenger and Freight Volumes, by Mode of Transport within the 2030 Agenda framework. ICAO continuously contributes to monitoring efforts of the 2030 Agenda and other development frameworks as appropriate.
