Before the SDGs, there were the Millennium Goals. 2015 was targeted period. The goals haven’t been achieved. They have rebranded and become SGDs for 2030.

[@xerosereify]

The Millennium development goals were actually considered pretty successful and achieved great gains. They were always shoot for the moon type goals so perfectly reaching every one wasn't really going to happen. The Sustainable Development Goals do contain the bones of some of the old Millennium Goals, but they are also much wider in scope. Would be a very strange way to rebrand a "failed" project given how many more ambitious new goals they added to the project.

[@user-sq5mn3xo6t]

This ambitious TO DO list is very important. The main reasons the SDGoals have not been met is because of lack of political will by government leaders, lack of financial commitment, lack of good governance, wars aimed at stealing the resources of other nations, corporate greed, and global climate change. The world has the resources to meet the SDGs it is a matter of prioritizing where and how resources are allocated. Rather than spending huge resources on war, we need to Make Peace Profitable. We need to meet the needs of populations everywhere with the resources available. This can be done, it is a matter of popular and political will. There must be a huge paradigm shift to make this possible.
