4. About the Goals
No Poverty-
• Eradicating poverty is not a
task of charity, it's an act of
justice and the key to unlocking
an enormous human potential.
Still, nearly half of the world’s
population lives in poverty, and
lack of food and clean water is
killing thousands every single
day of the year. Together, we
can feed the hungry, wipe out
disease and give everyone in the
world a chance to prosper and
live a productive and rich life.
Good health and well being
• Good health is essential to sustainable
development and the 2030 Agenda
reflects the complexity and
interconnectedness of the two. It
takes into account widening
economic and social inequalities,
rapid urbanization, threats to the
climate and the environment, the
continuing burden of HIV and other
infectious diseases, and emerging
challenges such as noncommunicable
diseases. Universal health coverage
will be integral to achieving SDG 3,
ending poverty and reducing
inequalities.

5. Quality Education-
• This goal ensures that all
girls and boys complete free
primary and secondary
schooling by 2030. It also
aims to provide equal access
to affordable vocational
training, to eliminate
gender and wealth
disparities, and achieve
universal access to a quality
higher education.
Clean water and sanitation-
• Water scarcity affects more than
40 percent of people, an
alarming figure that is projected
to rise as temperatures do.
Although 2.1 billion people have
improved water sanitation since
1990, dwindling drinking water
supplies are affecting every
continent.More and more
countries are experiencing water
stress, and increasing drought
and desertification is already
worsening these trends. By
2050,

6. Affordable and clean energy-
• Goal 7 of the SDGs aims to
correct this enormous
imbalance by ensuring
everyone has access to
affordable, reliable, and
modern energy services by
the year 2030. ... Energy
from renewable resources –
wind, water, solar, biomass
and geothermal energy – is
inexhaustible and clean.
Climate Action-
• Sustainable Development Goal
13 (SDG 13 or Goal 13) is
about climate action and is
one of the 17 Sustainable
Development Goals established
by the United Nations in
2015. The official wording is
to "Take urgent action to
combat climate change and its
impacts". The Goal has targets
to be achieved by 2030.

7. Life below water-
• Conserve and sustainably use
the oceans, seas and marine
resources for sustainable
development. Healthy oceans
and seas are essential to our
existence.They cover 70
percent of our planet and we
rely on them for food, energy
and water.
Life on land-
• Protect, restore and promote
sustainable use of terrestrial
ecosystems, sustainably manage
forests, combat desertification,
and halt and reverse land
degradation and halt biodiversity
loss. Goal 15 in Action Explore
the Targets. A flourishing life on
land is the foundation for our
life on this planet.

8. Impacts of SDGs across the world
SDG-1
SDG 1 aims to end poverty in all
its forms everywhere. Its
objectives include ensuring that
the entire population and
especially the poorest and most
vulnerable have equal rights to
economic resources, access to
basic services, property and land
control, natural resources and
new
technologiesPoverty eradication

Platform. The 2030 Agenda
acknowledges that
eradicating poverty in all its
forms and dimensions, including
extreme poverty, is the greatest
global challenge and an
indispensable requirement
for sustainable development..

9. NO POVERTY-
Use these seven targets to create action to end poverty in all its
forms.
Target 1.1. Eradicate Extreme Poverty. ...
Target 1.2. Reduce Poverty by at Least 50% ...
Target 1.3. Implement Social Protection Systems. ...
Target 1.4. Equal Rights to Ownership, Basic Services, Technology
and Economic Resources. ...
Children, lone parents, disabled people and people in households in
which no one works are more likely to experience poverty, to
remain in poverty for longer and to experience deeper poverty,
than others.
The 2030 Agenda acknowledges that eradicating poverty in all its
forms and dimensions, including extreme poverty, is the greatest
global challenge and an indispensable requirement for sustainable
development.

10. Impacts of SDGs across the world
SDG-2 • By 2030, end the epidemics of
AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria and
neglected tropical diseases and
combat hepatitis, water-borne
diseases and other
communicable diseases. By
2030, reduce by one third
premature mortality from
non-communicable diseases
through prevention and
treatment and promote
mental health and well-being.
This will take place by reducing
maternal mortality; end the
deaths of children under the
age of five; end the outbreak of
common diseases such as
tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, and
malaria; reduce deaths or
injuries from road accidents;
and increase access to sexual
and mental health care.

11. Good health and wel being-
In addition, the SDG 3 focuses on ensuring healthy lives for all
at all ages, positioning equity as a central issue in health,
contributing to reducing inequality within and between
countries to promote the inclusion and empowerment of all.
Here are five steps to improve personal well-being, societal
cohesion and greater cooperation with our future.

12. Impacts of SDGs across the world
SDG-3
• This goal ensures that all girls
and boys complete free primary
and secondary schooling by
2030. It also aims to
provide equal access to affordable
vocational training, to eliminate
gender and wealth disparities,
and achieve universal access to a
quality higher
educatioEducation is the key that
will allow many other Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs) to be
achieved. When people are able to
get quality education they can
break from the cycle of
poverty. Education therefore
helps to reduce inequalities and
to reach gender equality.
• Sustainable Development Goal 4
(SDG 4) is the education goal. It
aims to “ensure inclusive and
equitable quality education and
promote
lifelong learning opportunities
for all.”
.

13. Quality Education-
Education for sustainable development (ESD) promotes the development of the
knowledge, skills, understanding, values and actions required to create
a sustainable world, which ensures environmental protection and conservation,
promotes social equity and encourages economic sustainability. Quality education
aims at developing a balanced set of capabilities of children they require to
become economically productive, develop sustainable livelihoods, contribute to
peaceful and democratic societies and enhance individual well-being. in the
statement, ASCD and EI define a quality education: A quality education is one
that focuses on the whole child—the social, emotional, mental, physical, and
cognitive development of each student regardless of gender, race, ethnicity,
socioeconomic status, or geographic location.22-Feb-2016Attaining Sustainable
Development Goals by 2030 Will Be Impossible at Current Investment Rate,

14. Impacts of SDGs across the world
SDG-4
Safe and affordable drinking
water for all by 2030 requires
we invest in adequate
infrastructure,
provide sanitation facilities,
and encourage hygiene. ...
Protecting and
restoring water-related
ecosystems is essential.
Sustainable management
of water resources and access
to safe water and
sanitation are essential for
unlocking economic growth and
productivity, and
provide significant leverage for
existing investments in health
and education.

15. Clean water and sanitation
Goal 6 targets
6.1 By 2030, achieve universal and equitable access to safe and affordable
drinking water for all.
6.2 By 2030, achieve access to adequate and equitable sanitation and
hygiene for all and end open defecation, paying special attention to the
needs of women and girls and those in vulnerable situations.
Goal 7 of the SDGs aims to correct this enormous imbalance by
ensuring everyone has access to affordable, reliable, and modern
energy services by the year 2030. To expand energy access, it is
crucial to enhance energy efficiency and to invest in renewable
energy.
Having clean water and sanitation means being able to avoid
exposure to countless diseases. Every year, millions of people die from
diseases caused by inadequate water supply, sanitation, and hygiene.

16. Impacts of SDGs across the world
SDG-5 • Investing in solar, wind and
thermal power, improving
energy productivity, and
ensuring energy for all is vital
if we are to achieve SDG 7
by 2030. Expanding
infrastructure and upgrading
technology to provide clean
and more efficient energy in
all countries will encourage
growth and help the
environment. Goal 7 of
the SDGs aims to correct this
enormous imbalance by
ensuring everyone has access
to affordable, reliable, and
modern energy services by
the year 2030. To
expand energy access, it is
crucial to
enhance energy efficiency and
to invest in renewable energy.

17. Affordable and clean energy-
Expanding infrastructure and upgrading technology to provide clean
energy sources in all developing countries is a crucial goal that can both
encourage growth and help the environment. Sustainable energy is one of
17 Global Goals that make up the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable
Development Access to clean, modern, sustainable energy is critical for
improving the health and livelihoods of billions of people around the world.
... UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 7 focuses on a concerted global
effort to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern
energy for all Focusing on universal access to energy,
increased energy efficiency and the increased use of renewable
energy through new economic and job opportunities is crucial to creating
more sustainable and inclusive communities and resilience to environmental
issues like climate change.

18. Impacts of SDGs across the world
SDG-6 Climate change is more than just one
of the 17 SDGs specified in the 2030
Agenda for Sustainable Development.
It is a threat multiplier with the
potential to worsen some of
humanity's greatest challenges,
including health, poverty and hunger.
This finding implies that
future climate change will increase
inequality across countries.
Hence, climate change threatens not
only economic growth (SDG 8) but it
will also act as a poverty multiplier by
increasing the number of poor people
and by making poor people even
poorer (SDG 1), as well as inequality
(SDG 10).

19. Climate Action
Sustainable Development Goal 13 aims to “take urgent action to
combat climate change and its impact”, while acknowledging that the
United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change is the primary
international, intergovernmental forum for negotiating the global response
to climate change. Climate action means stepped-up efforts to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions and strengthen resilience and adaptive capacity
to climate-induced impacts, including: climate-related hazards in all
countries; integrating climate change measures into national policies,
strategies and planning; and improving education. People are experiencing
the significant impacts of climate change, which include changing weather
patterns, rising sea level, and more extreme weather events. The greenhouse
gas emissions from human activities are driving climate change and
continue to rise. Increased heat, drought and insect outbreaks, all linked
to climate change, have increased wildfires. Declining water supplies,
reduced agricultural yields, health impacts in cities due to heat, and
flooding and erosion in coastal areas are additional concerns.

20. Impacts of SDGs across the world
SDG-7
By 2020, sustainably manage and
protect marine and coastal
ecosystems to avoid significant
adverse impacts, including by
strengthening their resilience, and
take action for their restoration in
order to achieve healthy and
productive oceans. SDG 14 targets
seek to prevent and reduce marine
pollution; further the sustainable
management and protection of
marine and coastal ecosystems;
address the impacts of ocean
acidification; regulate harvesting and
end overfishing, illegal, unreported
and unregulated fishing and
destructive fishing practices; conserve

21. Life below water
They help with the breakdown and removal of waste and pollution, and
their coastal ecosystems act as buffers to reduce damage from storms.
Maintaining healthy oceans supports climate change mitigation and
adaptation efforts.
By 2025, prevent and significantly reduce marine pollution of all kinds, in
particular from land-based activities, including marine debris and nutrient
pollution. By 2020, sustainably manage and protect marine and coastal
ecosystems to avoid significant adverse impacts, including by strengthening
their resilience, and take action for their restoration in order to achieve
healthy and productive oceans. Minimize and address the impacts of ocean
acidification, including through enhanced scientific cooperation at all levels.
By 2020, effectively regulate harvesting and end overfishing, illegal,
unreported and unregulated fishing and destructive fishing practices and
implement science-based management plans, in order to restore fish stocks
in the shortest time feasible, at least to levels that can produce maximum
sustainable yield as determined by their biological characteristics.
TARGET 14.5CONSERVE COASTAL AND MARINE AREAS

22. Impacts of SDGs across the world
SDG-8
Protect, restore and promote
sustainable use of terrestrial
ecosystems, sustainably manage
forests, combat desertification, and
halt and reverse land degradation
and halt biodiversity loss. A
flourishing life on land is the
foundation for our life on this
planet. SDG 15: Protect, restore
and promote sustainable use of
terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably
manage forests, combat
desertification, halt and reverse
land degradation and halt
biodiversity loss. Land resource
is important because humans not
only live but also perform all
economic activities on land.
Besides, land also supports wild life,
natural vegetation, transport and
communication activities.

23. Life on land
The UN established UN SDG 15: Life on Land to help protect the Earth's
ecosystems, promote the sustainable management of forests, and put a stop
to land degradation and biodiversity loss. This goal aims to conserve all forms of life
on land, from humans through to every last insect.
The UN's SubGoals for life on land
.Conserve and restore terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems.
.End deforestation and restore degraded forests.
.Ensure conservation of mountain ecosystems.
.Protect biodiversity and natural habitats.
.Eliminate poaching and trafficking of protected species.
Deforestation and for- est degradation results in loss of habitat for all species, a
decrease in freshwater quality, an increase in soil erosion, land degradation and
higher emissions of car- bon into the atmosphere. In short, not taking action on
forests impacts both the health of the planet and our communities.

25. QUALITY EDUCATION

26. Psychological consequences
• In September 2015, mental health was included in the
UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In this historic
step, the United Nations (UN) acknowledged the burden of
disease of mental illness, and defined mental health as a
priority for global development for the next 15 years.
• Goal 3 of the SDGs is to: Ensure healthy lives and promote
well-being for all at all ages. Target 3.4 is: By 2030, reduce
by one third premature mortality from non-communicable
diseases through prevention and treatment and
promote mental health and well-being.

27. 5 criticisms of the SDGs
• The goals do not go far enough: The SDG targets move bit by bit, slowly
looking for progress towards 2030. But a lot of people can’t wait until
then. As they are living now, they might not survive to see that date.
• The goals ignore underlying inequalities in the international system: Our
current world order favors a rich minority. Critics say that achieving
sustainable development means that we need a serious reform of our
systems, for example our trading rules, and for the powerful to give up
some of their power
• The goals are top down and bureaucratic ignoring local context: One size
does not fit all when it comes to achieving sustainable development. The
goals must strike a balance between respecting local context and working
at the international level to reform institutions.

28. The SDGs are wishes not goals: The goals are not binding,
that means, countries are not penalised for not acting on
them. It is also not clear who will implement them. But
especially, they do not hold the most powerful people to
account for their actions. “It is not enough to specify,
however exactly, what needs to be done; governments must
also agree, for each specific task, who is responsible for
ensuring that it actually will get done.
Lack of data: The data that we do have is not enough for
us to use the goals either as a way to guide our
management of easing poverty or as a way to report on
progress. If we don’t have this data, how useful can the
goals be for those people making

29. CASE STUDY
SDG-6
Swachh Bharat Abhiyan:-
Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM), Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, or Clean India Mission is
a country-wide campaign initiated by the Government of India in 2014 to
eliminate open defecation and improve solid waste management. It is a
restructured version of the Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan launched in 2009 that failed
to achieve its intended targets. Phase 1 of the Swachh Bharat mission lasted till
October 2019. Phase 2 will be implemented between 2020–21 and 2024-25.
Initiated by the Government of India, the mission aimed to achieve an "open-
defecation free" (ODF) India by 2 October 2019, the 150th anniversary of the
birth of Mahatma Gandhi.[5] The objectives of the first phase of the mission also
included eradication of manual scavenging, generating awareness and bringing
about a behavior change regarding sanitation practices, and augmentation
of capacity at the local level. The second phase of the mission aims to sustain the
open defecation free status and improve the management of solid and liquid
waste.[6] The mission is aimed at progressing towards target 6.2 of
the Sustainable Development Goals Number 6 established by the United Nations
in 2015.

30. Swachh Bharat Mission
• The mission was split into two: rural and urban. In rural areas "SBM -
Gramin" was financed and monitored through the Ministry of Drinking
Water and Sanitation; whereas "SBM - urban" was overseen by
the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs.
• As part of the campaign, volunteers, known as Swachhagrahis, or
"Ambassadors of cleanliness", promoted indoor plumbing and community
approaches to sanitation (CAS) at the village level. Other activities
included national real-time monitoring and updates from non-
governmental organizations such as The Ugly Indian, Waste Warriors,
and SWaCH Pune (Solid Waste Collection and Handling).
• The government provided subsidy for construction of nearly 110 million
toilets between 2014 and 2019, although some Indians especially in
rural areas choose to not use them. The campaign was criticized for
using coercive approaches to force people to use toilets. Some people
were stopped from defecating in open and threatened with withdrawal
from government benefits

31. Release
• India's prime minister Modi at a rally to promote Swachh Bharat
Mission
• Swachh Bharat Abhiyan campaign, launched on 2 October 2014
on birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, aimed to
eradicate open defecation by 2 October 2019, the 150th
anniversary of the birth of Mahatma Gandhi, by constructing 90
million toilets in rural India at a projected cost
of ₹1.96 lakh crore (US$27 billion).The national campaign
spanned 4,041 statutory cities and towns. conceived in March
2014 at a sanitation conference organised by UNICEF India and
the Indian Institute of Technology as part of the larger Total
Sanitation Campaign, which the Indian government launched in
1999.

32. Previous sanitation campaigns
• A formal sanitation programme was first launched in 1954, followed by
Central Rural Sanitation Programme in 1986, Total Sanitation
Campaign (TSC) in 1999 and Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan in 2012.A
limited randomized study of eighty villages in rural (Madhya Pradesh)
showed that the TSC programme did modestly increase the number of
households with latrines, and had a small effect in reducing open
defecation. However, there was no improvement in the health of
children."The earlier "Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan" rural sanitation program
was hampered by the unrealistic approach.Consequently, Nirmal Bharat
Abhiyan was restructured by Cabinet approval on 24 September 2014
as Swachh Bharat Abhiyan.[ The rural household toilet coverage in India
increased from 1% in 1981 to 11% in 1991, to 22% in 2001, to 32.7%
in 2011.Since 2014, the Government of India, has made remarkable
strides in reaching the Open Defecation Free targets. 36 states and union
territories, 706 districts and over 603,175 villages have been declared
open defecation free as of Jan 2020. India has made rapid progress in
ending open defecation across the Country which is having a huge impact
on improving water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH).

33. Budget/Finance
• Swachh Bharat Abhiyan is expected to cost over ₹620 billion (US$8.7 billion). The
government provides an incentive of ₹12,000 (US$170) for each toilet constructed by
a rural family. An amount of ₹90 billion (US$1.3 billion) was allocated for the mission
in the 2016 Union budget of India.The World Bank provided a US$1.5 billion loan and
$25 million in technical assistance in 2016 for the Swachh Bharat Mission to support
India's universal sanitation initiation.The programme has also received funds and
technical support from the World Bank, corporations as part of corporate social
responsibility initiatives, and by state governments under the Sarva Shiksha
Abhiyan and Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan schemes.
• Promotional campaigns-
• Prime Minister Modi selected the following public figures to propagate this
campaign:Sachin Tendulkar (Cricketer)
• Priyanka Chopra (Indian Actress and Singer)
• Baba Ramdev(Yoga guru)
• Salman Khan (Actor)
• Vidya Balan (Actress)
