The theme of all the activities will be around the SDGs– the 17 ambitious global goals associated with 169 targets to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all by 2030.
SDGs were agreed upon by all member countries of the United Nations (including India) in 2015, which are to be achieved by 2030. The Government of Nagaland is also working towards localizing and integrating the SDGs. This is yet another effort towards creating more awareness and public participation in the SDGs-oriented action as well as aligning all activities to the SDGs during the Festival period, the report added.
