United Nations Secretary General, António Guterres, recently issued a concerning warning regarding the status of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which seek to reduce global poverty and improve overall well-being.

Guterres emphasized that these goals are currently off track, prompting French President Emmanuel Macron to organize a global conference in Paris this month. As leaders from various countries, including Barbados, Kenya, and Germany, come together, they must prioritize seven crucial areas to steer the 2030 SDG targets back on course. The significance of this blueprint for prosperity cannot be overlooked or underestimated.
