The SDG India Index 2023-24 reveals significant national and subnational progress on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). India’s composite score improved to 71, reflecting advancements across key sectors like poverty eradication, economic growth, climate action, and biodiversity conservation.
NITI Aayog’s role in localizing SDGs and fostering competitive federalism has been pivotal, promoting sustainable development as integral to national and subnational policies.
The SDG India Index serves as a crucial tool for evaluating progress and guiding policy decisions towards achieving the 2030 Agenda. The focus remains on inclusive growth and environmental sustainability.
There are 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established by the United Nations.
All 193 member states of the United Nations have committed to achieving these goals by 2030.
The SDGs aim to address global challenges such as poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace, and justice.
Each goal has specific targets, totaling 169 targets across all SDGs, to guide national and global efforts towards sustainable development.
The SDGs were adopted by all UN member states in 2015 as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
Countries are encouraged to localize and integrate the SDGs into national policies and programs, with regular monitoring and reporting on progress.
The SDGs provide a framework for global cooperation, encouraging collaboration among governments, businesses, civil society, and citizens to achieve a more sustainable and equitable world by 2030.
