This paper shows how Sustainable Consumption and Production （SCP） can be positioned in the context of international policy trends in the era of Sustainable Development Goals （SDGs）. Especially, policy goals in the era of SDGs are not limited to environmental pollution prevention nor efficiency improvement of individual products and services but aiming at collaboration between socio-technological innovation and social and business model development. It can be achievable through integration into social and economic policies. We discuss that policy approaches in the era of SDGs, aiming at socio-technological system innovation, signify the collaborative approach among autonomous decentralized initiatives by setting middle and long-term goals such as decarbonization, circular economy, or one planet living.
