Rooted in the United Nations Charter and guided by the transformative 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA) upholds the development pillar of the United Nations. UN DESA is a pioneer of sustainable development and the home of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). UN DESA helps countries make informed decisions by providing a wealth of information through publications and databases and through support for international deliberations at the United Nations General Assembly, Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), Commissions, Forums and other bodies.
