      Hoy, los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) constituyen el marco de referencia principal a la hora de abordar la sostenibilidad y el desarrollo humano. Desafortunadamente, existen varios aspectos y cuestiones que se han ignorado en los ODS, o bien subestimado, que pueden convertirse en serios obstáculos para su éxito. Entre ellos, las dimensiones éticas, culturales y espirituales de la vida humana parecen haberse desvanecido en el olvido. Sin estas dimensiones, los ODS pueden convertirse en una especie de estrategia de resolución de problemas bien intencionada, mas ciega, en la que se ignoran las razones de la crisis que se desea corregir. Dicha ausencia es clara cuando se examina el vocabulario utilizado en los ODS y resulta más evidente cuando se compara con el lenguaje utilizado en otras conocidas declaraciones internacionales sobre el mismo tema. Sacar a la luz esta carencia abre la posibilidad que los ODS revisen las estrategias con las que podrían ser más efectivos a la hora de perseguir sus propósitos en los próximos años.

      Today, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the main framework of reference when addressing sustainability and human development. Unfortunately, there are several aspects and issues that the SDGs have ignored or underestimated and can become serious obstacles to their success. Among them, the ethical, cultural, and spiritual dimensions of human life seem to have faded into oblivion. Without these dimensions, the SDGs may become a kind of well-intended but blind problem-solving strategy that ignores the reasons of the crisis it wants to redress. This absence is apparent when the vocabulary used by the SDGs comes under scrutiny and is still more evident when it is compared with the language used in other well-known international declarations on the same subject. Bringing this shortcoming to light opens the possibility for the SDGs to review the strategies with which they could be more effective when pursuing their purposes in the coming years.
