weekly highlights on the 2030 Agenda’s Sustainable Development Goals
This week’s highlight:
Goal #9: Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable
industrialization and foster innovation.
TARGETS OF THE GOAL
9.1
Develop quality, reliable, sustainable and resilient
infrastructure, including regional and transborder
infrastructure, to support economic development and
human well-being, with a focus on affordable and
equitable access for all.
9.2
Promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and,
by 2030, significantly raise industry’s share of
employment and gross domestic product, in line with
national circumstances, and double its share in least
developed countries.
9.3
Increase the access of small-scale industrial and other enterprises, in particular in developing
countries, to financial services, including affordable credit, and their integration into value chains and
markets.
9.4
By 2030, upgrade infrastructure and retrofit industries to make them sustainable, with increased
resource-use efficiency and greater adoption of clean and environmentally sound technologies and
industrial processes, with all countries taking action in accordance with their respective capabilities.
2. 9.5
Enhance scientific research, upgrade the technological capabilities of industrial sectors in all
countries, in particular developing countries, including, by 2030, encouraging innovation and
substantially increasing the number of research and development workers per 1 million people and
public and private research and development spending.
9.a
Facilitate sustainable and resilient infrastructure development in developing countries through
enhanced financial, technological and technical support to African countries, least developed
countries, landlocked developing countries and small island developing States.
9.b
Support domestic technology development, research and innovation in developing countries,
including by ensuring a conducive policy environment for, inter alia, industrial diversification and value
addition to commodities.
9.c
Significantly increase access to information and communications technology and strive to provide
universal and affordable access to the Internet in least developed countries by 2020.
