NOTES ON THE 2030 AGENDA FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT: the importance of research on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Brazil

The 2030 Agenda was launched by the United Nations in 2015 and consists of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Its creators addressed issues of importance to different societies around the world. Brazil is a signatory to the 2030 Agenda, and Brazilian universities are crucial to achieving these goals. Therefore, it is crucial that educational and research institutions in the country expand and deepen their studies on the SDGs, especially to develop social technologies that are appropriate to Brazil's diverse territorial realities. Thus, the objective of this article is to reflect on the importance of conducting research on the 2030 Agenda and to present incipient ideas on potential social technologies. To achieve this objective, bibliographical research was conducted, and the ideas were inspired by Futures Studies.
