Abstract

This text analyzes the sustainable development goals established by the United Nations in 2015, which were agreed after an exhaustive discussion with all the countries of the world seeking sustainable development. The version worked on in the Gender Summit of that same year is used, which includes the gender dimension. That science, use of energy and gender are crosscutting issues across the seventeen goals is stated here. However, this cross-cooperation is complicated because science, technology and the use of energy depend in turn on the gender perspective. The problems raised are multidisciplinary. Some topics that should be investigated towards sustainable development are highlighted here; and important digital references are given for the ones interested in this topic.
