The Current State of the SDGs: A Call to Action! Today, at the halfway point of the 2030 Agenda, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are unfortunately at risk. Successive global crises - pandemics, conflicts, inflation, and the effects of climate change - have slowed, or even reversed, progress in many areas. SDG 3, which aims to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all, faces persistent challenges, particularly in access to care, mental health, and epidemic management. That's why every contribution matters, and yours can make a real difference.
