When he spoke to the UN General Assembly last year, the prime minister dwelt at length on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and how to implement them. These shocking figures emerged from the recent report, "Ending Violence in Childhood", prepared by the Know Violence in Childhood project. The report was discussed last week at the UN headquarters in New York during a meeting titled "Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals for Children: Collective Actions and Innovative Solutions". The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity. But this is a fight that we must continue, and the Sustainable Development Goals provides a framework for doing so.
