#Latam#SDGs, April 23, 2024 – Twenty two percent of Latin America and the Caribbean’s Sustainable Development Goals are in good standing, with the expectation of being reached by 2030, compared to only 15 percent globally according to the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), during the seventh Forum of Latin American and Caribbean Countries on Sustainable Development.

Though this is good news, the organization reports that there is concern as the progress for 46 percent of those targets remain insufficient and 36 percent projected to me missed, due to issues such as poverty and rising food insecurity.
