Its previous development core agenda was called 18 Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and their subsidiary 18 targets. MDGs had been implemented from 2000 to 2015. With varying success rates of MDGs across the globe, more action was urgently needed for the sustainability of people and the planet. SDGs are the outcome from the negotiations for the needed action. I am copying the SDGs and their targets below.
