Abstract

BORQUEZ POLLONI, Blanca  and  LOPICICH CATALAN, Boris. The bioethical dimension of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Rev. Bioética y Derecho [online]. 2017, n.41, pp.121-139. ISSN 1886-5887.

In 2015, the member states of the United Nations renewed their commitment towards development. In fact, the constituents adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, 17 Goals to be achieved over the next 15 years. This programmatic agenda, an extension of the 2000 Millennium Development Goals, exemplifies the shift in our understanding of progress. Originally exclusively focused on the economist point of view, it now encompasses social and environmental dimensions. This holistic understanding of development contained in the idea that "no one is left behind", reflects a strong commitment towards addressing the multidimensional and multifactorial causes of poverty, hunger, discrimination, exclusions and inequalities, all of these spaces where Bioethics, from its secular, social and human conception has much to contribute.

Keywords : 2030 agenda; Sustainable Development Goals; SDGs; bioethics; sustainable development.
