Only 15% of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals are currently on target. Progress on half of The Goals is either “moderately” or “severely” behind, and as many as 30% of The Goals have regressed behind where they were when conceived in 2015.
But it is not new technology or science or knowhow that is needed to make progress. What is needed is accelerated funding and technology transfer into grassroots projects in low-income countries that can generate large socio-economic return in support of The Goals.
