The United Nations General Assembly in 2012 unanimously approved a resolution declaring the decade 2014-2024 as the Decade of Sustainable Energy for All (SE4ALL). The resolution builds upon the accomplishments of the SE4ALL initiative and stresses the need for a coherent and integrated approach to energy issues and sustainable development. It remains a declaration that has set the stage for a greater emphasis on long-term energy sustainability. The Decade initiative is indicative of an era when Member States have a rising interest in energy issues and recognize the importance of increasing the use of renewable energy resources, providing modern energy access to all, and improving energy efficiency.
