In 2015, the member countries of the United Nations adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and defined 17 goals, known as Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),[16] and several indicators aimed at assessing their results. In 2023, the United Nations launched a mid-term assessment of the progress of these goals and, as can be seen in Figure 1, the results were alarming (UN, 2023: 8). The report, citing data as of June 2023, analysed each of the goals and showed that more than half of the world's population is “falling behind.” Although some SDGs have made progress, others show slow progress or even worrying setbacks (poverty, hunger, equality, climate). The report calls for urgent action before the 2030 Agenda becomes a pipe dream or, worse, the epitaph of the world that could have been (UN, 2023).
