Now it is the need of the hour to explore transformational pathways that take a comprehensive people and planet approach to ensure a prosperous and healthy future for all on a resilient and healthy planet. Gradually and rapidly, awareness intensifies that the universally adopted Sustainable Development Goals can only be achieved through an unprecedented transformation of the economies, societies, and technologies worldwide. Sustainability is a matter of need that requires the deployment of economic,
political, social implements, technological innovations, and changes in lifestyles to bring about the needed transformational changes at every scale. The concept of Sustainability was developed to create guidelines that allow the development of societies while preserving the environment. Its official definition was established in the Brundtland Report (1987), which states that Sustainable Development consists of meeting the needs of present generations without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
The concept is based on three aspects: society, economy, and environment. Transformations for sustainable development must be based on the reform of the relationship between these aspects i.e., society, economy, and the environment. New mindsets and behaviour must work towards a sustainable outlook.
