Q78 (UPPCS/2022) Environment & Ecology › Climate Change & Global Initiatives

Which one of the following is NOT a 'Sustainable Development Goal' (SDG) target to be achieved by 2030 ?

Explanation

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity. There are 17 interlinked goals in total.

  • Quality Education is SDG 4, which aims to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.
  • Zero Hunger is SDG 2, which aims to end hunger, achieve food security, and improve nutrition.
  • Gender Equality is SDG 5, which aims to achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.

Space Research is NOT one of the 17 SDGs. While space-based technology and satellite data are critical tools for monitoring and achieving various goals (such as climate action or life on land), space exploration itself is not a target of the 2030 Agenda.
