India’s SDG Score Improves, But Inequalities Persist 🌍 India’s Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) score has seen a significant improvement, rising from 66 in 2020-21 to 71 in 2023-24. This progress is attributed to various policy measures, including the PM Ujjwala Yojana, Ayushman Bharat, and the National Food Security Act, which have positively impacted millions of lives. 📈 However, the report also highlights a concerning increase in inequalities, with the score for reduced inequalities dropping from 67 to 65. This decline is largely due to the inclusion of the Gini Coefficient, which measures income inequality. Despite this, the broader parameter of reduced inequality also considers factors like women’s participation in the labor force and crime against marginalized communities. ⚖️ Key Highlights: No Poverty: Score improved from 60 to 72. Multidimensional Poverty: Dropped from 24.8% in 2015-16 to 11.28% in 2022-23. Employment: Nearly 99.7% of persons demanding employment under MNREGS were offered employment in 2023-24. While the overall SDG score improvement is commendable, addressing the growing inequalities remains crucial for sustainable and inclusive development. Let’s continue to strive for a balanced and equitable future for all. 🌱 #SustainableDevelopment #SDGs #India #Inequality #PolicyImpact #InclusiveGrowth #SocialInnovation #NetZero #Agrifood #Sustainability #FoodSecurity #Maharashtra #techinnovatewithsushil Feel free to share your thoughts and insights on this important issue! 💬 OMLAS - One Million Leaders Asia Nelis Global Source : https://lnkd.in/gpG8u8xG

#Calling it a mission impossible is not an acceptable answer... will india be able to achieve #sustainabilitygoals ???? In 2015,193 Members of the United Nations agreed to 17 sustainable development Goals to be achieved by 2030... Incredible progress has been made to advance all 17 SDGs - from efforts to end poverty and hunger to improving water and sanitation to expanding access to technology and making cities more sustainable.Violent conflicts in different regions of the world are dominating the news; climate change is forcing more and more people to leave the place they call home; and a cost-of-living crisis has tipped millions of people into poverty.This is reflected in UNDP’s latest Human Development Index, which measures a nation’s health, education, and standards of living. #what new approach should we adopt?? 'We need to shift our thinking from ‘what is happening to me’, to ‘what is happening to us’.Achieving 17 very ambitious objectives can sometimes feel overwhelming. However, it is not about individuals having to address all SDGs simultaneously. Anyone person or community or business can commit to addressing one or more SDGs based on their priorities - ultimately enabling us to collectively address all of them over time. Also, Politicians and the government make sure that all those who raise their voice for change be heard clearly.. It is only people of india 🇮🇳 who can bring change, not the government nor the Politicians alone... It is the only people of india who will make india to achieve good rank in HDI(Human Development Index)report, ultimately to achieve SDGs.. #unitydevelopment #sustainabledevelopment #peopledevelopment #genderequality #developedindia

🌟 Exploring Collaboration Opportunities: Bridging Government Initiatives with Social Impact 🌟 Dear LinkedIn Community, I am excited to share an opportunity for potential collaboration that could drive meaningful change in our communities. At PCI India, we are currently working on an intervention on FNHW (Food, Nutrition, Health, and WASH) in partnership with the Government of India. FNHW aims to address crucial aspects of rural development by integrating health, nutrition, and WASH interventions into existing government frameworks, particularly within the Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana- National Rural Livelihoods Mission (DAY-NRLM). Our initiative underscores the belief that healthy families, with assured food and nutrition security, and access to safe WASH, can become economically more productive. By aligning our efforts with government programs, we aim to amplify impact and foster sustainable change in rural communities. We are actively seeking collaboration with organizations, government bodies, and CSR initiatives that share our vision and are committed to driving positive social impact. Together, we can leverage our collective expertise, resources, and networks to make a real difference in the lives of marginalized populations, especially women and girls.

Whether facing pandemics, natural disasters, or economic downturns, rural communities exhibit unique resilience strategies tailored to their challenges. Amid health crises, innovative healthcare models and community awareness initiatives prove pivotal. Proactive disaster preparedness, early warning systems, and sustainable agricultural practices play a crucial role in mitigating the impact of natural disasters. Economic uncertainties find countermeasures in diversified income sources and access to microfinance. Central to resilience is the strong social fabric of rural communities, fostering unity during challenging times. Government interventions, technological innovations, and educational initiatives further contribute to crisis resilience, shaping a collaborative and enduring response. As rural communities adapt, learn, and plan, crisis resilience becomes an integral thread in their fabric, illuminating a path towards a more robust and sustainable future. #RuralDevelopment #CrisisResilience #PVTGs #CommunityDevelopment #CulturalHeritage #SustainableDevelopment #LinkedInForChange Professional Assistance For Development Action (PRADAN) Azim Premji Foundation Transform Rural India UNICEF India
