India’s SDG preparedness ranking continues to decline: Report
Context
As per a new report, India is not placed well to achieve the United Nations-mandated Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and its preparedness has worsened over the years in comparison with other countries.
About
- India’s rank in the global Sustainable Development Report, 2022 has slipped for the third consecutive year.
- It is published by a group of independent experts at the Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN).
- The country continues to face major challenges in achieving 11 of the 17 SDGs, which has pushed down its global ranking on SDG preparedness.
- Ensuring decent work (SDG 8) has become more challenging for India.
- This decline in India’s overall performance is primarily due to eight states — Bihar, Telangana, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Punjab and Jharkhand — whose scores have dipped under SDG 13 in the two years.
Sustainable Development Report:
- The Sustainable Development Report (formerly the SDG Index & Dashboards) is a global assessment of countries' progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
- It is a complement to the official SDG indicators and the voluntary national reviews.
- The overall score measures the total progress towards achieving all 17 SDGs.
- The score can be interpreted as a percentage of SDG achievement.
- A score of 100 indicates that all SDGs have been achieved.
