Trade in the post-2015 development agenda

“Sustainable development must be an integrated agenda for economic, environmental and social solutions. Its strength lies in the interweaving of its dimensions. This integration provides the basis for economic models that benefit people and the environment for environmental solutions that contribute to progress for social approaches that add to economic dynamism and allow for the preservation and sustainable use of the environmental common and for reinforcing human rights, equality, and sustainability. Responding to all goals as a cohesive and integrated whole will be critical to ensuring the transformation needed at scale.” (Paragraph 84 of the UN Secretary-General’s Synthesis Report on the Post-2015 Agenda).
