Abstract: The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a series of goals formulated by the United Nations to address major global challenges, aiming to guide member states and the international community to achieve sustainable development in the economic, social, and environmental fields. On September 25, 2015, leaders from 193 member states unanimously adopted "Transforming Our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development", officially establishing 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which cover the three dimensions of economy, society, and environment. As an important part of ensuring human health and environmental safety, the radiation protection system is closely related to several of the SDGs.
