Back in 2015, world leaders adopted the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, committing to creating a better future for all. However, as of today, the fulfillment of the targets according to the UN report on the 17 SDGs until 2030 can be estimated at only 17%.
The 17 SDGs aim to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all, so this is a very important and relevant issue. https://www.undp.org/sustainable-development-goals
