By DR. RICHARD AMENYAH | The Summit on Rescuing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), simply called the SDG Summit, will take place this month as part of the U.N.
General Assembly (UNGA) in New York to mark the 78th anniversary of the UNGA and the midpoint of the 2030 Global Agenda for sustainable development.
The world must do more to bolster efforts and accelerate progress to achieve the SDGs and leave no one behind. The urgency of the matter is underscored by stark realities facing our world today.
Currently, more than half the world is sadly being left behind because only 12 percent of the SDGs are on track, progress on 50 percent is weak and insufficient.
