Panel Discussion: Rescuing the Sustainable Development Goals The pandemic, climate change, global instability, and what the UN’s Global Crisis Response Group is calling the “greatest cost-of-living increase in a generation have pushed millions of people back into poverty, damaged societies, and reduced our collective capacity to tackle climate change and other deep systemic changes. Staying the current course will lead to unprecedented convulsions within decades, putting at even greater risk all the gains of the last century against poverty, disease, and other inequities. For example, the pandemic alone disrupted education across the world for over 200 million children, With experts forecasting that by 2030, 825 million children will leave the classroom without even the most basic skills needed for decent jobs, the goals are not a ‘feel good list - they are a ‘must do’ job for a world that works for all of us. Policymakers and business leaders alike must invest in sustainable opportunities for a more prosperous future that leaves no one behind. Meaningful participation and the Global Framework are well structured all we need is action-oriented stretigies Stop talking start Acting.
