The Sustainable Development Goals Report

113


In June 2024, the UN published the annual Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Report, prepared by the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs in collaboration with more than 50 international and regional agencies, based on data provided from more than 200 countries.

The SDG 2024 report focuses on current challenges in the implementation of the 2030 Agenda, positive and negative experiences in achieving the SDGs, and also highlights the need to accelerate action in key areas such as combating climate change, achieving peace and security, and eradicating inequality. According to the report, the actions taken to achieve the SDGs are insufficient, and without significant investments and actions, the goals may not be achieved by 2030.

Antonio Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, as well as Li Junhua, Under-Secretary-General for Economic and Social Affairs, Stefan Schweinfest, Director of the Statistics Division, UN DESA and Jung Min, Head of the SDG Monitoring Section of the Statistics Division, UN DESA presented the report at a press conference.

An expanded report on each SDG was also published.
