| dc.description.abstract | The role played by entrepreneur in economic growth of development countries cannot be over stressed. Now, it has been realised by government globally that increasing entrepreneurship both qualitatively and qualitatively will lead to the achievement sustainable economic development. This is because entrepreneurship development helps to create employment and make goods available everywhere. In view of the above, developing countries including Nigeria made several efforts towards entrepreneurship development at several times. On historical front, the sustainable development goals (SDGs) were bom at the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development in Rio de Janeiro in 2012. The objective was to produce a set of universal goals that meet the urgent environmental, political, and econOmic challenges facing our world. The SDGs replaced the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), which started a global effort in 2000 to tackle the indignity of poverty. Some of the objectives of MDGs include: reducing extreme poverty and hunger; preventing deadly diseases; and expanding primary education to all children; among others (UNDP, 2012). For about 15 years, the MDGs made some progress in some areas including: reducing income poverty, driving down child mortality, and improving maternal health as well as increasing literacy levels. The SDGs are built on the successes of the MDGs, while including new areas such as climate change, economic inequality, innovation, sustainable production and consumption, peace and justice, good governance, among other priorities. According to UNDP (2015), the SDGs are an inclusive agenda, and poverty eradication is at the heart of the 2030 agenda, and so is the commitment to include all and sundry to make a positive change for both people and planet. This means that SDGs are of the people, by the people and for the people | en_US |
