The Agenda 21

Agenda 21 is a comprehensive plan of action adopted by the United Nations in 1992, aimed at promoting sustainable development globally. It addresses various issues, including environmental protection, social equity, and economic growth, with the goal of improving the quality of life for current and future generations. The agenda encourages countries to develop local strategies for sustainable practices in areas like urban development, agriculture, and natural resource management. While it provides a framework for cooperation, implementation is voluntary and relies on the commitment of governments and communities to achieve its objectives.
