Role of NGOs in Sustainable Development

Since the adoption of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, 193 countries committed themselves to promote and achieve by 2030 the 17 objectives that aim to end poverty, fight against inequality and injustice and tackle climate change. In line with its active participation in the negotiations, the EU occupies a central role in the implementation of the 2030 Agenda, which is why a whole series of initiatives, instruments, and tools have been launched, in addition to the alignment of its policy of development; which update a response to current global challenges and promotes the application of this new approach to international cooperation in partnership with multiple actors. However, one of the major changes in the new EU cooperation policy is the disappearance of bilateral cooperation aimed at Middle-Income Countries and Upper-Middle Income Countries; Therefore, from the inclusion of new actors to achieve the SDGs, this volume, amongst other goals and objectives, aims to explain: what is the role and involvement of NGOs in the new changes, transformations and imbalances from this new paradigm of international cooperation and in particular with the European Union?
