The statement is True.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were indeed preceded by the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The MDGs were a set of eight international development goals that were established following the Millennium Summit of the United Nations in 2000, aimed primarily at addressing issues such as poverty, education, gender equality, and health by 2015.

In 2015, the United Nations adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which included the 17 SDGs. These goals expanded upon the MDGs by incorporating a broader range of social, economic, and environmental objectives and emphasizing the importance of sustainable development for countries at all levels of development. The transition from MDGs to SDGs reflects a commitment to tackle global challenges in a more holistic and inclusive manner.
