The 17 SDGs Are One Integrated System.

Ministries and offices of a decentralized government constitute silos of thoughts and policies with insufficient interaction between them for integrated thinking and policies across the government. In fact, more often than not, ministries compete with one another for policy hegemony, usually with the ministries of finance and economy overpowering the others, such as the ministries of environment or social development, and making economic growth dominate all other goals. Effective international cooperation is essential in coping with global problems, but such cooperation has been insufficient in scope and depth.
