THE ACT

“A nation which, when doing anything to improve the economic, social, environmental and cultural well-being of Wales, takes account of whether doing such a thing may make a positive contribution to global well-being”

Wales is unique in the world in demonstrating a comprehensive commitment to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, and our contribution to these has been recognised.

The Commissioner’s current analysis shows that objectives and steps relating to being globally responsible are varied, and public bodies are not demonstrating clear and credible accounts of their positive contributions to the world.

We should all be thinking and acting in a way that is globally responsible. The starting point is having a clear understanding of the definition of the well-being goal, so that any action to improve the economic, social, environmental and cultural well-being of Wales, takes account of whether doing such a thing may make a positive contribution to global well-being.
