摘要

聯合國自2016年通過推動「永續發展目標」（sustainable development goals, SDGs）後，SDGs成為各國政府的施政方向，也是當今全球最重要的議題之一。聯合國呼籲各國政府結合全球公民力量，在人類、地球、繁榮、和平及夥伴關係等領域採取行動，共同努力來消除極端貧窮、戰勝不平等、不公正及遏制氣候變遷，才能保障人類生存及地球的永續發展。在17項SDGs中，護理不僅是實踐「永續發展目標三：健康與福祉」的關鍵，也對其他永續發展目標有舉足輕重的影響。然而，對許多護理人員而言，永續發展目標仍是不熟悉的議題。因此，本文將簡介永續發展目標的內容、護理的角色及著力點，期許護理師能發揮專業所長及影響力，以實踐聯合國永續發展目標：不讓任何人落單（no one is left behind）的誓言。

The sustainable development goals (SDGs), announced by the United Nations in 2016, now help guide public policy in many nations around the world. The United Nations has appealed to all governments and citizens worldwide to align together, taking action in each of the SDG dimensions of people, planet, prosperity, peace, and partnership in order to eradicate extreme poverty, inequality, and injustice; to slow / stop climate change; and to ensure sustainable development for humanity and the earth. Nursing is critical to achieving SDG3 (Health and Welfare) and has a significant impact on each of the other 16 SDGs. However, many nurses are unfamiliar or inadequately acquainted with SDGs. Therefore, this article introduces the content of the SDGs and the role of nurses in achieving each. In addition, we encourage nurses to exert their professionalism and compassion in realizing the pledge of the SDGs - No one is left behind.
