Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development

Goal 17 calls for a global partnership for sustainable development. The goal highlights the importance of: - global macroeconomic stability - trade for developing countries - equitable rules for governing international trade - access to science, technology and innovation - particularly internet-based information and communications technology

The goal also highlights the need to mobilise financial resources for developing countries from international sources (and through strengthened domestic capacities) for revenue collection.
