Opis

'NGOs are recognized as pillars for the implementation of SustainableDevelopment Goals (SDGs), with the understanding that the State and itsinstitutions cannot achieve the objectives of the 2030 Agenda by themselves.They have played an important role in the change and transformation ofsociety. From a working approach based on human rights, NGOs are anecessary bridge between citizens and public authorities, in the search forbalance between social demands and the response capacity of publicauthorities.' This volume also exclusively illustrates why such concepts as "women empowerment" and "democratic accountability" are assuming ever increasing roles and relevance. Further, it highlights why and how the concepts and definitions attributed to the term " sustainable development" has expanded over the years to embrace more concepts and actors which were not catered for inoriginal concepts and definitions. In drawing attention to key concepts of parliamentary sovereignty, the rule of law and the importance of engaging non governmental organisations in sustainability, from the point of accountability, it illustrates and demonstrates how global trade relations is evolving over the years.
