Description of SDG-17: Partnership for the Goals 

SDG 17 explicitly relates to all other SDGs. Everyone needs to come together, governments, civil society, scientists, academia and the private sector, to achieve the sustainable development goals. SDG17 is the only compulsory SDG for inclusion in the overall rankings. As sustainable development is the responsibility of every part of society, across the world. It cannot be achieved without linkages, across the goals, but also between institutions, governments, companies, NGOs, and people.

Universities should support the SDGs through collaboration with other countries, promotion of best practices and the publication of data and evidence. Unless all partners work together towards the SDGs, they cannot be achieved.
