End poverty in all its forms everywhere
Data from the 2030 AGENDA FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT SPOTLIGHT REPORT 2022 BRAZIL SYNTHESIS show that the 168 goals of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda of the United Nations (UN) originally applicable to the country were evaluated – including the seven that from 2021 onwards will be considered in the Panel SDG Brazil as “not applicable” – only one had satisfactory progress.
