The new Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) agenda is centred on people & planet, underpinned by human rights and supported by a global partnership determined to lift people out of poverty, hunger and disease. It will be thus be built on a foundation of global cooperation and solidarity.
International Human Solidarity Day is:

a day to celebrate our unity in diversity; 

a day to remind governments to respect their commitments to international agreements; 

a day to raise public awareness of the importance of solidarity; 

a day to encourage debate on the ways to promote solidarity for the achievement of the Sustainable 

Development Goals including poverty eradication; 

a day of action to encourage new initiatives for poverty eradication.
