~ Before We Start… ~
For a while now, I have followed the Sustainable Development Goals. There has only been one problem for me; accessing the Goals themselves, at once, alongside their Targets and Indicators. So, I took it upon myself to put all this “SDG stuff” together in one giant document and publish them here, too. How convenient, right?
I hope you find what you are looking for, in here. I think, most likely, that you will find what you are looking for. Where things appear scruffy, please advise and let’s see how to go about it!
Cheers!!!
Ps. The CLOCK IS TICKING!!!!
