| Summary | A conspiracy theory that the UN's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development includes hidden plans for population control and forced sterilization. Proponents often link this to the Bill Gates depopulation theory. The claim is unproven and contradicted by the UN's stated goals. |
| Origin | The theory emerged after the UN adopted the 2030 Agenda in 2015, with some interpreting its goals as a cover for population reduction. |
| Claimed |
|
| Evidence / consensus | The UN's 2030 Agenda focuses on sustainable development, including health and gender equality, with no mention of population control. The claims are based on misinterpretation of the agenda's language. |
