SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals), otherwise known as the Global Goals, are
a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people
enjoy peace and prosperity and which is a collection of 17 Global Goals.
The Goals to be achieved vary by country and region and the solutions and difficulty
