The Sustainable Development Goal (SDGs) Publishers Compact is a non-binding pledge recognizing the publishing industry's obligation to contribute to developing a sustainable future. During the Decade of Action (2020-2030), signatories plan to publish books and journals that educate, develop, and inspire others to take similar action in support of the SDGs. Publishers are committed to influencing change through the content and products they create and publish for a wide range of audiences. Collectively, they have provided essential forums for debating SDG topics such as inequality, health, poverty, and the environment. More and more publishing houses are classifying their catalogs according to the SDG framework, facilitating the organization of content by booksellers and distributors in ways that support the SDG agenda.
