marked a historic milestone by recognizing culture as a global public good and advocating for its inclusion as a standalone goal in the post-2030 Sustainable Development Agenda. This significant declaration highlights culture's intrinsic value and transformative role in advancing sustainable development, fostering social cohesion, and addressing global challenges. While culture significantly contributes to the existing  (SDGs), it remains unrecognised due to a lack of robust data and methodologies to effectively measure its impact.

Building on the MONDIACULT 2022 Declaration and with the upcoming World Conference on Cultural Policies and Sustainable Development - MONDIACULT 2025, UNESCO is advocating for culture as a standalone SDG in the post-2030 agenda. By emphasizing the cross-cutting role of culture across economic, social, and environmental dimensions, UNESCO seeks to elevate its visibility and showcase its pivotal contributions to sustainable development. This advocacy underscores how culture serves not only as a driver but also as an enabler of transformative progress, fostering synergies among diverse development areas.

Recognizing culture as a stand-alone goal would address existing gaps while unlocking its full potential to empower communities, nurture creativity, safeguard heritage, and promote inclusive and equitable development for future generations. Such recognition would firmly embed culture at the core of global efforts to build resilient societies and sustainable futures, ensuring that cultural rights, diversity, and heritage are integral to achieving comprehensive development objectives
