This chapter identifies some of the most stubborn gender-based risks and vulnerabilities girls face as a cohort from preadolescence through late adolescence across the domains of personal capabilities, security, safety, economic resources, and opportunities. It reviews progress made during the Millennium Development Goal era in improving girls’ health and well-being and looks to the role of adolescent girls in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals. The chapter concludes by recommending an approach for global partnership that is linked to national and local actions and that is centered on priority interventions that can catalyze change, at scale, for adolescent girls.

Abstract Background The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) aim to solve the world's most wicked problems, which requires global partnership. That means governments, national and international organizations and worldwide leaders working together, but it also implies individuals, families and communities, which make up most of the world, must contribute. Households, schools, the health system and others have a responsibility in the consumption and demand for energy and resources of our planet and contribute largely to climate change. Awareness and population education are essential to promote action on an individual level. Objective This presentation is part of a workshop on how individuals and public health (PH) can create a more sustainable world. It aims to present the science and challenges behind changing and creating new habits, and examples of individual habits and choices everyone can make in order to contribute to the SDG and to sustainable health prevention. This presentation is based on the United Nation (UN) available material for the SDG, as well as other independent research on the subject. Results Sustainable individual actions can be divided in 3 different main themes: Food and Water - Examples. Eat a more plant-based diet; use apps like Too Good To Go®; reutilize the water from your shower... Energy - Examples. Plug all appliances into a power strip and turn them off completely when not in use; adjust your fridge and home thermostat to winter and summer temperatures; use energy efficient light bulbs; fill your house with rugs... Resources - Examples. Pay your bills online; delete your spam email; compost your food; choose a better diaper option; shop second-hand clothes... Conclusions There are a lot of habits and small choices everyone can adopt in order to contribute to a more sustainable world and to promote healthy habits. These changes may seem trivial on an individual level, but they add up to millions of resources saved for the planet at a global scale.

Common Vision

The seventeenth Sustainable Development Goal of the United Nations, Partnerships for the Goals, aims to strengthen the means of the implementation and revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development. The successful implantation of the UN’s seventeenth Sustainable Development Goal will aid the execution and achievement of the other sixteen goals. This article explores the importance and viability of Sustainable Development Goal 17, using a case study based in Valencia, Spain. The study presents an illustrative stakeholder situation, where we see that there are conflicting interests among conservationists, fishermen, municipality representatives, and others. Data collection was done using desk-based research and semi-structured interviews. The interview process was performed between October 2018 and October 2019. In total, 21 different stakeholders were interviewed. For the data analyses, a stakeholder register, Power–Interest Matrices, and a stakeholder map were used, and, to complement the latter, narratives were developed. The different analyses showed that most project stakeholders supported the project, while there was really only one stakeholder, the fishermen themselves, who were reticent about participating. However, it was shown over time that, by developing a common vision with them, the fishermen came on board the project and collaborated with the scientists. Stakeholder engagement analyses are especially useful in the application of Sustainable Development Goals at the project level. Although this case study is specifically applicable to a marine conservation context, it may be extrapolated and applied to any other Sustainable Development Goals’ context.
