Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of the role of the regional component in implementation of the Agenda for Sustainable Development until 2030. Achievement of the 17 Goals and 169 targets in the field of sustainable development indicated in it can hardly be conditioned only by the successful and effective policy of each of the UN member states in this direction. This is explained, first of all, by the fact that the implementation of the Agenda envisages both the interaction of countries at a universal level and largely depends on their regional cooperation, including through integration associations. Wherein, the study of the relevant experience of the Eurasian Economic Union as one of the largest regional associations of economic integration is of considerable interest in this matter. The authors consider practical achievement of the mentioned Goals, primarily Goal 8, through the prism of ensuring freedom of movement of labor within the Union and the effective functioning of its common labor market.
