Abstract
Summary:
Sustainable development is one of the emerging terms, since it has not been clearly considered in the rules of public international law; This has become one of the fundamental human rights and the link between society, the environment and the economy, which has called upon the international community to strive to make this right a universal or collective human right without which no one is able to live; Sustainable development is the right of every human being equally, which is an inalienable right of self-determination. The international community and Governments have therefore become increasingly important for sustainable development, especially after the many disasters and crises on climate change, the consequences for the use of natural resources and, consequently, the impact on investment and hence on individuals in access to services and their basic rights.
Therefore, the plan for development that the international community seeks to achieve by 2030 is based on a sustainable development approach and linked to concrete legal principles, so as to help achieve it and increase the likelihood of its success; It is clear, therefore, that the sustainable development goals and the international treaties and their plan to achieve 2030 are not just an international plan that will enable States to achieve them, but that it reinforces the legal responsibilities of States that have ratified the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and political Rights.
