All of the preceding goals can only be addressed through global and local alliances. However, some governments refuse to cooperate. Private investment is often used for rapid growth rather than sustainable goals. Official development assistance is also declining. However, close and international cooperation is essential with regard to all SDGs. Good networking is effective against poverty and can ensure that all countries have the necessary resources to achieve the goals. The principle of the 2030 Agenda is “leave no one behind”. It is a collective responsibility to provide access to education, research and fair production conditions, to strengthen cohesion and to take every person along the path to sustainable development.

In the area of financing:

• Strengthen domestic resource mobilization, including through international assistance to developing countries to improve national capacity to collect taxes and other levies.
• Ensure that developed countries fully meet their ODA commitments, including the commitment made by many developed countries to reach the target of 0.7 percent of their gross national income for ODA to developing countries and 0.15 to 0.20 percent to least developed countries; ODA donors are encouraged to consider providing at least 0.20 percent of their gross national income to least developed countries as a target.
• Mobilize additional financial resources from various sources for developing countries.
• Help developing countries achieve long-term debt sustainability through coordinated policies to promote debt financing, debt relief, and debt restructuring, respectively, and address the external debt problem of heavily indebted poor countries to reduce over-indebtedness.
• Adopt and implement investment promotion systems for the least developed countries.

In the area of technology:

• Improve regional and international North-South and South-South cooperation and triangular cooperation in science, technology, and innovation and access to them, and enhance knowledge sharing on mutually agreed terms, including through better coordination among existing mechanisms, particularly at the United Nations level, and through a global mechanism for technology promotion.
• Promote the development, transfer, dissemination, and diffusion of environmentally sound technologies to developing countries on mutually agreed favorable terms, including concessional and preferential terms.
• Fully operationalize the Technology Bank and the Science, Technology and Innovation Capacity Building Mechanism for Least Developed Countries by 2017 and improve the use of enabling technologies, especially information and communication technologies.

In Capacity Building:

• Increase international support for the implementation of effective and targeted capacity building in developing countries to support national plans to implement all the Sustainable Development Goals, namely through North-South and South-South cooperation and triangular cooperation.

In the field of trade:

• Promote a universal, rules-based, open, non-discriminatory and equitable multilateral trading system under the umbrella of the World Trade Organization, in particular by concluding negotiations under its Doha Development Agenda.
• Significantly increase developing country exports, particularly with a view to doubling the share of LDCs in global exports by 2020.
• Achieve rapid implementation of duty-free and quota-free market access on a permanent basis for all least developed countries in line with World Trade Organization decisions, including by ensuring that preferential rules of origin applicable to imports from least developed countries are transparent, simple, and help facilitate market access.

For systemic issues | policy and institutional coherence:

• Improve global macroeconomic stability, namely through policy coordination and policy coherence.
• Improve policy coherence in favor of sustainable development.
• Respect each country’s policy space and leadership in defining and implementing policies for poverty eradication and sustainable development.
• Expand the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development, complemented by multi-actor partnerships to mobilize and share knowledge, expertise, technology, and financial resources to support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in all countries, particularly developing countries.
• Support and encourage the formation of effective public, public-private, and civil society partnerships, building on the experience and fundraising strategies of existing partnerships.
• By 2020, increase capacity-building support for developing countries and namely least developed countries and small island developing states, with the goal of having significantly more high-quality, timely, and reliable data disaggregated by income, gender, age, ethnicity, migration status, disability, geographic location, and other characteristics relevant in the national context.
• By 2030, build on existing initiatives to develop measures of progress for sustainable development that complement gross domestic product and support statistical capacity building for developing countries.
