UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development The UN 2030 Agenda is a plan of action for people, the planet and prosperity. The plan sets out 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that integrate the three indivisible dimensions of sustainable development - economic, social and environmental. Since 2015, Ireland is a signatory to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, and this is heavily reflected throughout the NPF and the RSES. European Green Deal The European Green Deal is a new growth strategy that aims to transform the EU into a fair and prosperous society, with a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy where there are no net emissions of greenhouse gases in 2050 and where economic growth is decoupled from resource use. It is about improving the well-being of people, making Europe climate neutral and protecting the natural habitat which will be good for people, the planet and the economy. The aims of the Green Deal are: for Europe to become climate-neutral by 2050; to protect human life, animals and plants by cutting pollution; to help companies become world leaders in clean products and technologies; and to help ensure a just and inclusive transition. City & County Development Plans The ten City and County Development Plans are a key component of the RSES process and will provide the detailed and coordinated plans to guide and shape the development of communities. Local Economic & Community Plans Reflecting the important role of Local Community Development Committees and Public Participation Networks (PPNs), the RSES incorporates the LECPs for each local authority in the Region. The LECPs identify strategic assets, high-level goals, sustainable objectives, priorities and actions at local community level. The NPF, RSES, the CCDP and LECP processes are part of a multi and interrelated tiered approach to the broadening role of Local Government in planning and in economic and community development spheres.
