Studies have affirmed that restructuring for sustainable development is a process involving three essential elements; feasible industrial growth to fulfil basic socio-economic needs; ensuring maximum development of human resources and achieving greater socio justice through a more equitable income distribution. Unfortunately, none of these is satisfactorily manifesting in African nations. In Nigeria, unemployment rate is increasing among the youth and young graduates. Globally, cooperatives societies have become well appreciated as a strong vehicle for promoting economic empowerment particularly among the youth and other vulnerable and marginalised groups. This will be a vehicle to eradicate poverty among the youth thereby fulfilling the first Sustainable Development Goal (SDG). This study examined the contributions of cooperatives societies to poverty eradication among members and national development; investigated how cooperative societies can be better positioned to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals in Nigeria; and determined the factors affecting the performance of cooperatives in Nigeria. Two thousand Nine Hundred and seventy-two respondents from all 1,486 cooperative societies in Osun State were sampled. Result showed that cooperative societies have ability for economic significance, employment creation, income generation, poverty reduction, environmental sustainability and institutional capacity building. The paper concluded that cooperative societies, if well harnessed, could be used to make local entrepreneurs have access to finance and thereby eradicating poverty and so fulfil goal one of the sustainable development goals.

Today many countries are participating in the implementation of the sustainable development goals in the framework of the global agenda 2030. The G-7 countries, having significant economic and political potential, play a special role in ensuring the sustainable development of the world. Despite the similarity of the political positions of the world’s largest economies on many pressing problems, each of them acts in its own way in the sphere of sustainable national development. The authors of the article intend to find similarities and differences in the actions of the G-7 countries to achieve the sustainable development goals. In this regard, a review of the G-7 national sustainable development strategies was carried out. As a result of the study, regularities are revealed and the features of the policies of these countries in the implementation of sustainable development goals in the period from 2010 to 2020 are presented.

In the context of the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which encompasses the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), mainstreaming means the landing of the Agenda at the national and local levels and its integration into development plans and budgets. This review paper casts light on approaches adopted in the Mediterranean countries to incorporate the SDGs into their national development policies, plans and strategies. It draws upon a comprehensive analysis of the Voluntary National Reviews (VNRs) on the implementation of the SDGs submitted by Mediterranean countries from 2016 to 2019. Mediterranean countries have taken concrete measures to map existing policies against each of the SDG-targets in order to identify policy gaps and to mainstream the 2030 Agenda into their legal and policy frameworks. They used different policy instruments and planning frameworks to take up the 2030 Agenda such as national development plans and strategies (e.g. Albania, Algeria, Croatia, Montenegro, Italy, Slovenia, Turkey), vision documents (e.g. Egypt, Malta, Slovenia, Tunisia) and action plans (e.g. Algeria, France, Spain). A few Mediterranean countries (e.g. Cyprus, Greece, Israel, Lebanon and Morocco) did not adopt any integrated policy instrument and opted for the implementation of the SDGs through existing national policies and strategies. The harmonization of national development plans and strategies with the SDGs is a continuous process and needs to be implemented across sectors. The analysis of the VNRs shows that little attention was dedicated to address trade-offs through policy integration. The achievement of the SDGs implies new modes of policy making as well as a better cross-sectoral coordination and harmonisation of policies in Mediterranean countries. Sharing lessons learned and mutual policy learning among Mediterranean countries could help ensuring a step forward from the formal description of legislation in the VNRs.

Philosophy of education in Kenya needs to be constantly reconstructed given the emerging needs of society and in light of global trends. Changes in the education system over time have not eradicated education challenges that result in unemployment and social evils in Kenya. There are also global and national goals to be met. The objective of this study was to examine the role of philosophers and suggest whether professional philosophers could reconstruct philosophy of education in Kenya to guide the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Kenya Vision 2030 Plan. The SDGs and Kenya’s Vision 2030 work in tandem, and if effectively and efficiently implemented, guided by a sound philosophy of education, lives of all Kenyans would be raised to international standards. This study was conducted as desk research that employed critical conceptual philosophical literature review. A recommendation was made that experts in philosophy of education could use Dewey’s philosophy of pragmatism to facilitate the reconstruction of Kenya’s national philosophy of education as a tool to steer attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals and the Kenya Vision 2030.

The article identifies the main objectives for achieving the sustainable development goals in the context of armed conflict in the eastern territory of Ukraine in accordance with the established strategic directions of the national development for the period up to 2030 according to the principle “Nobody should stand aside”. The organizations, which are obliged to provide the interested users with information on the achievement of the sustainable development goals and the tasks, specified for their achievement, have been identified. This study analyzes the non-financial reports of Ukrainian business entities, which are among dozens of enterprises with the highest level of transparency of information on corporate social responsibility. The analysis of non-financial reports allowed us to establish the specifics of disclosing information about social responsibility in the context of the tasks set to achieve sustainable development goals in the context of armed conflict in Ukraine. In particular, it was proved, that information on socially responsible measures taken is disinterest, which, in turn, indicates the concern of business entities in achieving sustainable development goals, adapted to Ukraine in the face of the consequences of the hybrid war.

The Colombian riverine system is composed by a 27.725km water network distributed in the four major basins (Magdalena, Amazonas, Atrato, Orinoco) along the country. 73.1% of the system can be considered as waterways. However instead of leveraging the potential for the exploitation of this natural resource and the promotion of a riverine transportation system which can impact neighboring populations in social aspects such as health and education, in Colombia the priority is focused to road transportations systems. The National Government, which has adopted the challenges for the sustainability of the planet, has accepted the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) promulgated by the UN and at the same time has linked the iniciative to its 2014 – 2018 National Development Plan. The possibility of connecting the promotion of its riverine vocation and capabilities for solving known socioeconomic needs motivate the creation of this methodological proposal that is driven by the identification of an interregional project portfolio that can be the starting point for closing the diagnosed gaps. At the same time it also makes the accomplish. Went of the goals established by the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, defined by United Nations, feasible.

The aim of this study is to conduct research and analysis on Indonesia's progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Quality Education over the last three years (2015-2018). The aim of this study is to assess and comprehend Indonesia's progress toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for Quality Education since they were announced in 2015. In Indonesia, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Education Quality thesis utilizes a qualitative research design. We conducted this research using a case study analysis based on the procedure, the data, and the triangulation of sources. We draw certain conclusions as a result of the study. To begin, in comparison to four years ago, at the time of the SDGs' initial ratification, Indonesia experienced better progress in terms of timeliness and participatory processes. But even so, the challenges faced by implementing the SDGs are not just about those two things. In terms of substance, the ambition of SDGs to eliminate the negation component of the development is a work that is almost close to utopia. Second, in terms of the process, the implementation of SDGs Quality Education at the national level still leaves homework such as accountability mechanisms, receipt of data from non-government parties, and the participation process itself. This should not be seen as a burden but rather a challenge that must be faced to improve performance for the acceleration of Indonesia's quality education national development until 2030. Third, the active role of the government is certainly the main capital for the implementation and achievement of SDGs quality education in Indonesia. Initiatives that come from various parties, including universities, bring optimism that the SDGs quality education will be implemented on inclusive and participatory principles. Fourth, a coalition of civil society organizations is needed to ensure that the SDGs' quality education is implemented in the context of Indonesia's growth, both at the national and regional levels. These social systems have the potential to pressure the Indonesian government to prepare for a variety of things, both procedurally and substantively.
