Building a Sustainable Future Through Decent Work and Economic Growth

 Sustainable Development Goal 8 (SDG 8) specifically targets “promoting sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all.” This goal recognizes that decent work is not just a result, but a driver of sustainable development across all aspects.
