Some may question the role of nursing theory and related paradigms in the age of sustainable development. True, what is needed now is action—measurable change with a focus on outcomes showing improved health and wellbeing and a demonstrable commitment to equity, inclusion, universal respect, and environmental thriving. The profession needs leaders to advance nursing’s political voice and harness mutually beneficial, long-term partnerships with stakehold- ers in the economic, financial, agricultural, energy, and busi- ness sectors. One tangible goal, being promoted through campaigns such as Nursing Now (n.d.), is to have a nursing presence at all decision-making tables related to health pol- icy that addresses the myriad determinants of health. With 2020 claimed as the Nurse and the Midwife (World Health Organization [WHO], 2019), we must not only honor our skills to adapt, collaborate, and progress but also celebrate our historical roots that establish nurses as sojourners with society and lightkeepers in a chronically dehumanizing healthcare system.

Why is talk of caring, integrality, and a humanistic nursing lens essential in the context of the 17 United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (United Nations, 2016) (see Figure)?

advocacy. Nurses across settings and in all nations worldwide play pivotal roles in the global attainment of the SDGs through acts of concerned citizenship and professional lead- ership (Dossey, Rosa, & Beck, 2019; Rosa, 2017a; Rosa, Sullivan-Marx et al., 2019). Theory breathes into the world

Abstract The 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) are intended to promote a safe, healthy, and equitable world by the year 2030. Nurses are at the forefront of realizing the 2030 agenda through concerned citizenship and professional leadership. Nursing theory informs knowledge development and theory-guided practice essential for nurses working in all domains and in all nations. Although all extant nursing theories are relevant, a select few are discussed in detail to make explicit the links between theory and SDG realization. Middle-range theories are also valuable in helping to contextualize nursing practice through the lens of the SDGs. The SDGs address five themes – People, Planet, Peace, Prosperity, and Partnership – and theory remains vital to ensure nurses working in all settings are equipped to meet the needs of humanity and the world, now and in the future
