Can the SDGs be achieved by 2030?


Event Details


GettyT13The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide an ambitious new agenda to guide global development efforts to 2030.

A new report from the Overseas Development Institute (ODI) outlines a set of projections for each of the SDGs – providing the best available snapshot of the progress we can expect to achieve over the next 15 years, assuming that current trends continue. At the Australian launch of the report, speakers from academia, NGOs, and government will examine where we are now, where we can expect to be by 2030, and what needs to be done to accelerate progress.

Speakers include:

  • Mr Chris Hoy Research Officer, Overseas Development Institute (ODI)
  • Ms Joy Kyriacou Natural Resources and Finance for Development Advocacy Manager, Oxfam Australia
  • Ms Natasha Smith First Assistant Secretary, Multilateral Development & Partnerships Division, DFAT
  • Prof Stephen Howes Director, Development Policy Centre

This public lecture is presented by the Development Policy Centre at Crawford School of Public Policy, The Australian National University.
