Fake UN ‘Agenda 2030’ list circulates again on social media

28 August 2025

What was claimed

A list of the UN’s “Agenda 2030 Mission Goals” includes plans for one world police force, the end of all private property and world depopulation.

Our verdict

False. The UN has confirmed the list is not genuine.

A fake list supposedly showing the United Nations (UN) “Agenda 2030 Mission Goals” is circulating again on social media.

The list includes policies such as “one world police force”, “end of all private property”, “microchipped for health, shopping and travel” and “world depopulation and fertility control”.

Other posts share a slightly different version of the list, but with similar policies.

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen this list being shared online, and the UN has previously confirmed to Full Fact it is “untrue”.

Graphic of misleading UN Agenda 2030 list

The UN does have a “2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”. This plan was agreed by UN member states in 2015 and sets out 17 global goals, including “quality education”, “clean water and sanitation” and “reduced inequalities”. But this agenda doesn’t feature the “goals” claimed in the list being shared on social media.

When we contacted the UN about similar posts last year it directed us to documents published following its “Summit of the Future” held in New York in 2024, which cover sustainable development, climate change and human rights, amongst other things. The proposals set out in these are also not the same as those listed in the image shared on social media.

We’ve previously fact checked a number of other false claims about the UN and its Sustainable Development Goals.

Claims like these can spread quickly online and be difficult to contain and correct. They can cause unnecessary fear about the future and falsely undermine trust in international organisations.
