The United Nations Agenda 2030 contains 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs). These goals are formulated in anthropocentric terms, meaning that they are to be achieved for the sake of humans. As such, the SDGs are neglecting the interests and welfare of non-human animals. Our aim in this paper was to ethically evaluate the assumptions that underlie the current anthropocentric stance of the SDGs. We argue that there are no good reasons to uphold these assumptions, and that the SDGs should therefore be reconsidered so that they take non-human animals into direct consideration. This has some interesting implications for how we should understand and fulfil the pursuit of sustainability in general. Most noticeably, several SDGs—such as those regarding zero hunger (SDG 2), good health and wellbeing (SDG 3), clean water and sanitation (SDG 6)—should be achieved for animals as well. Moreover, the measures we undertake in order to achieve the SDGs for humans must also take into direct account their effects on non-human animals.

Development Goals

The United Nations plans have marked global sustainable development for more than two decades. Most of the developed and developing countries have adopted these plans to achieve the Agenda 2030, currently formed by the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The analysis of the interactions between the SDGs is a growing area in research and of interest for governments. However, studies on how positive correlations can improve deteriorated goals are scarce for countries to date. This study aims at filling this gap by finding and quantifying the synergies and trade-offs among the SDGs of Spain. During the years 2000–2019, almost 80% of the SDG targets had significant interactions, either positive (synergy) or negative (trade-off). SDG 4 (quality education), SDG 5 (gender Equality) and SDG 7 (affordable and clean energy) contained the largest number of positive interactions, more than 60% in all of them. SDG 3 (good health and wellbeing) was strongly linked with indicators from SDG 4 (quality education) and also SDG 6 (clean water and sanitation). Furthermore, indicators from SDG 7 (affordable and clean energy) shared a high correlation with the ones from SGD 12 (responsible consumption and production) and SDG 15 (life on land). SDG 1 (no poverty), 2 (zero hunger), 6 (clean water and sanitation), 8 (decent work and economic growth) and 11 (sustainable cities and communities) had the slowest evolution during the years 2000–2019, showing contractions in some instances. We developed a regression model to assess the influence that selected targets have had on a less evolved target (target 8.6—proportion of youth not in education, employment or training). We managed to clarify high influence from target 1.3 (unemployment compensations), target 8.4 (domestic material consumption) and target 10.5 (non-performing loans) on the dependent variable. Identifying numerical dependencies between the SDGs may help nations to develop a roadmap where targets work as cogwheel towards achieving the Agenda 2030.

Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS) is the biggest university in Surakarta Central Java Indonesia, which was established on March 11th, 1976 through Presidential Decree No. 10 of 1976. Commitmen of UNS toward Green Campus began in 2012 by Rector Decree 7nd of August 2012. Land size of UNS, whis is only 60 ha becomes constraints in development of Green Campus Initiatives. In 2030 agenda of Sustainable Development Goals gives attention to huge increased of urbanization thus cities and human settlements face the problems of high density, economies of agglomeration link economy, energy, environment, science, technology and social and economic output [2]. The Problem of Water and Sanitation becomes big issues of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which is stated in the Goal 6 out of 17 Goals. Goal 6 not only addresses Clean water sanitation and health but also quality and sustainability of water resources all over the world. Universitas Sebelas Maret is one of Campus in Indonesia, which has awareness toward water and sanitation, especially related to the problem of waste. Liquid waste has become problems for a long time in UNS, when domestic liquid waste has come from residential areas surrounding campus passed through the lake in campus before finally flowing to Bengawan Solo River. This causes euthropication and sedimentation of the lake of UNS, which had impact on extremelly decreased the function of the pond estetically and functionally. By partnership with the Ministry of Public Works anad Spatial Planning in 2017, UNS has built Integrated Waste Water Treatment, which treats domestic liquid waste from residential area surrounding campus and internal campus becomes recycled clean water. In spite of that, UNS also treats organic waste of fall leafs through composting units and manages chemical hazardous waste according to the Indonesian regulation issued by Ministry of Environment. Several efforts of UNS related to Waste Management have contribution to achieving SDGs especially Goal 6: ensure availability and sustainable management of water a sanitation for all [2]. This contributes for improving water quality by reducing pollutions, dumping, minimizing chemical hazardous waste, increasing recycled and safe reuse of water on Campus.

Access to clean water and sanitation is a major requirement for all countries in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). The main aim of the study was to investigate the state and condition of water and sanitary facilities in selected secondary schools within Oyo State, Ibadan, Nigeria. Data was collected through the use of structured questionnaires and interviews with the students and teachers. Physical observation was also done onsite to supplement data gathering. The results revealed that deep-tube wells and pit latrines were the most widely used water and sanitation facilities in the study area. 70% of the schools surveyed used traditional pit latrines while 73% of schools had deep-tube wells respectively. In addition, there were limited drinking water and hand washing facilities in all the schools investigated. This study therefore recommends that government should increase funding for the provision of water and sanitation facilities in all schools in this state; as these would ensure good and enabling environment for learning as well as reducing outbreak of infectious diseases.Keywords facilities, sanitation, schools, SDG, water.

Abstract. Clean water is an indicator of life and quality of human life. It is no wonder that the provision of clean water and sanitation is included in the sixth goal of the 17 items Sustainable Development Goals agreed in the UN General Assembly Resolution by 193 Member States and global civil society on 25 September 2015. Unfortunately this mulya goal has not been fully achieved, especially for residents of Malang Regency. Data released by the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) of Malang Regency shows that households that still use river / rain water as a necessity of life reached 0.44 and 0.54 in 2016 and 2017. Those included in this category are residents of Segenggeng Hamlet, Wonokerso Village Pakisaji District. As a result of the poverty that plagued which was then exacerbated by the contours of the land in their area which required them to dig 50 meters more to obtain ground water. For the process of managing this service, the Mangga 2 Water User Occupation Association (HIPPAM) was formed as a continuation of the Mangga 1 clean water supply program which was established in mid-2010 in the Wonokerso sub-village. The capacity of the built water reservoir can accommodate 15 thousand cubic meters to serve 365 households in 10 RTs and two RWs. However there are several obstacles encountered; (1) Institutional; This community-based clean water mining organization does not yet have a legal entity; (2) The financial administration and administration of the HIPPAM secretariat are simple and not yet neatly archived. (3) Structured formal communication with customers and stakeholders has not been carried out properly. This is evidenced by the large arrears in account payments. Through this Community Partnership Program a draft of the initial draft of the Statutes and by-laws has been prepared by a drafting team representing all elements of the community. They can do this after participating in a series of training activities from authorized sources. Also, the capacity of individual administrators has increased by providing some printed materials as guidelines for working with water services. The performance of the institution is also the case through the provision of a computer that functions for the operational SIM application for payment of drinking water tariffs. Communication with customers that had not previously been carried out has also been carried out.Keywords: HIPPAM; Provision of Community-Based Drinking Water; Community Self-Reliance Institutions; National Program for Community Empowerment in Urban AreasAbstrak. Air bersih merupakan indikator kehidupan dan kualitas kehidupan manusia. Tidak heran kalau penyediaan air bersih dan sanitasi (Clean water and Sanitation) dimasukkan dalam tujuan keenam dari 17 butir Sustainable Development Goals (tujuan Pembangunan Berkelanjutan) yang telah disepakati dalam Resolusi Majelis Umum PBB oleh 193 Negara Anggota dan masyarakat sipil global tanggal 25 September 2015. Sayang tujuan mulya ini belum sepenuhnya tercapai terutama untuk warga Kabupaten Malang. Data yang dikeluarkan Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS) Kabupaten Malang menunjukkan rumah tangga yang masih menggunakan air sungai/ hujan sebagai kebutuhan kehidupan mencapai 0,44 dan 0,54 pada tahun 2016 dan 2017. Mereka yang termasuk dalam kategori ini adalah penduduk Dusun Segenggeng Desa Wonokerso Kecamatan Pakisaji. Akibat kemiskinan yang mendera yang kemudian diperburuk dengan kontur tanah di wilayah mereka yang mengharuskan mereka untuk menggali 50 meter lebih untuk memperoleh air tanah. Untuk proses pengelolaan layanan ini dibentuk Himpunan Pendudukan Pengguna Air Minum (HIPPAM) Mangga 2 sebagai kelanjutan dari program pengadaan air bersih Mangga 1 yang telah yang didirikan pertengahan 2010 di dusun Wonokerso. Kapasitas tandon air yang terbangun dapat menampung 15 ribu meter kubik dapat melayani 365 rumah tangga di 10 RT dan dua RW. Namum ada beberapa kendala yang dihadapi; (1) Kelembagaan ; organisasi pengambangan air bersih berbasis masyarakat ini belum memiliki badan hukum; (2)Administrasi keuangan dan ketata usahaan sekretariat HIPPAM yang sederhana dan belum rapi terarsipkan. (3) Komunikasi formal terstruktur dengan pelanggan dan stakeholder belum terlaksanan dengan baik. Ini dibuktikan dengan banyakanya tunggakan pembayaran rekening. Lewat Program Kemitraan Masyarakat ini telah tersusun sebuah naskah draft awal Anggaran Dasar dan Anggaran Rumah Tangga oleh tim penyusun yang mewakili semua unsur warga masyarakat. Mereka dapat melakukan ini setelah mengikuti serangkaian kegiatan pelatihan dari nara sumber yang berwenang. Juga kapasitas individu pengurus telah meningkat dengan memberikan beberapa materi cetak sebagai panduan kerja layanan air minum. Kinerja lembaga juga demikian lewat pemberian satu komputer yang berfungsi untuk operasional SIM aplikasi rekening pembayaran tarif air minum. Komunikasi dengan pelanggan yang sebelumnya belum pernah dilaksanakan juga telah dilakukan.Kata Kunci : HIPPAM; Penyediaan Air Minum Berbasis Masyarakat ; Lembaga Keswadayaan Masyarakat;  Program Nasional Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Mandiri Perkotaan
