SDG Summit Debrief
A brief snapshot of the proceedings at the SDG Summit and the challenges in the coming year.
At the halfway point of the 2030 Agenda and its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), where does the world stand? And how concretely were world leaders willing to commit to climate action, reform of the international financial system, and reducing inequality within and between countries?
