Media Wrap Up of the 2019 Europe Sustainable Development Report
On 19 November, 2019, the Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) and the Institute for European Environmental Policy (IEEP) published the 2019 Europe Sustainable Development Report. This is the first independent quantitative report on the progress of the European Union and its member states towards Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), agreed by all UN member states in 2015. As the new European Commission prepares the European Green Deal, the 2019 Europe Sustainable Development Report comes at a crucial time, shedding light on the key economic, social and environmental sustainability challenges faced by the member states and the European Union as a whole in their progress towards SDGs.
