Nowadays, growth has come at the expense of the environment and that is making our environment unlivable day by day. In such conditions, sustainable development will play an important role to push ´Go Green´ among all the countries around the world for a better future. To join the processes of contributions in this global sustainable development agenda, the Institute of Development Studies and Sustainability (IDSS) at the United International University(UIU), Bangladesh organized the ´2nd International Conference on Sustainable Development´ on 15 - 17 February 2018. The aim of the conference was to identify the ways to sustainability and share the empirical knowledge based on research, practice, and education. This conference provided a unique opportunity to bring together stakeholders from government, knowledge institutions, academia, international agencies, NGOs, private development sector, and grassroots organizations to share practical solutions towards the achievement of more sustainable and inclusive societies. So, this work is a combination of some of the great ideas of that conference which will be a guideline for sustainable practice for all.
