The Burundi government has established a national list of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for 2016-2030 and integrated them into the 2018-2027 National Development Plan (NDP). The government is working on all SDGs but has chosen not to undertake certain targets of SDG 8 (8.2; 8.4; 8.5; 8.6; 8.7; 8.8). The SDGs have been integrated into national policies: SDG 8 into the national employment policy and SDGs 1, 5, 10,13 and 16 into the revision of the employment and social security code as well as the Decent Work Country Programme 2019-2023.
