Q

rationales of the SDG’s

A
  1. A new set of goals and targets were needed when the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) finished in 2015
  2. Progress achieved through the MDGs was uneven across regions and countries, and significant work still needed to be done to improve health and wellbeing globally. More work needed to be done.
  3. New global challenges had emerged that needed to be addressed, such as increasing conflict and extremism, widespread migration, economic and financial instability and large-scale environmental changes.
