1. OneNYC and the SDGs: A City Strategy with Global Relevance

Abstract

Executive SummaryIn 2015, two new frameworks for sustainable development were launched in New York: New York City’s local long-term sustainability plan and the UN’s Agenda for Sustainable Development. The city’s plan, One New York: A Plan for a Strong and Just City (“OneNYC”), covered New York’s unique environmental, resilience, economic, and social challenges, tailoring the then-draft global vision to a city-level scale for a more sustainable future. At the same time, information gained during the development of the city’s plan provided useful insights for the finalization of the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (“SDGs”), agreed to by 193 heads of state and government as part of the global Agenda for Sustain-able Development. OneNYC built on previous city plans—notably PlaNYC—in striving to make New York greener and more resilient, while adding an explicit focus on equity and inclusive economic growth. OneNYC provided a vision for the city’s future that acknowledged the interconnectedness of residents, the local economy, the built infrastructure, and the natural environment.
