Description:The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) will guide national policies and international cooperation activities over the next 15 years, succeeding and updating the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The formulation of the SDG involved a wide consultation process and the crucial concept of indivisibility of the economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development was then accepted. The commitment to global health is framed in goals specific to Goal 3 (Health and Well-being), which potentially open a new chapter in the history of population health: improvement for all, with reduction of inequalities. The areas of Collective Health and Nutrition represent important pillars in the construction of knowledge to boost the 2030 agenda, which is the objective of the project. The GPS-IMS / Uerj is multidisciplinary, encompassing areas of concentration, research and training covering the three branches of Collective Health - Epidemiology, Health Planning and Policies, and Social and Human Sciences in Health. Its objective is to develop interdisciplinary and critical reflection on the health / disease process in its multiple dimensions and on health policies in Brazil. Multiple themes on agenda 2030 have been the subject of study. GP-ANS aims to develop research in the fields of Food, Nutrition and Health in order to overcome the fragmentation that characterizes modern life and science, with approaches that articulate their biological, sociocultural and collective health aspects. The studies converge on themes of the 2030 agenda, such as eradicating hunger, achieving food security and improving nutrition, and promoting sustainable agriculture. The project aims to consolidate the partnership and contribute to the international reach of these GPs, through the production of knowledge around the ODS theme. Eleven professors and 25 students will be trained, 30 work missions will be carried out, international partnerships and international publications will be expanded and the ODS theme will be incorporated into the curricula of the programs involved. The initiative will have a significant impact on the qualification of GPs and their production, contributing to UERJ's prominence in terms of internationalization. IES involved: UB Aires, U.
