The paper examines the role of the United Nations in addressing global challenges such as armed conflict, climate change, and resource scarcity, emphasizing the significance of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It critiques the SDGs' reliance on legally non-binding resolutions, which limits enforcement and implementation by member states. The discussion includes a comparison with binding human rights treaties, particularly the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights (ICESCR), exploring how these frameworks might enhance the effectiveness of the SDGs.
