Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
This question asks us to identify the correct statements about targets associated with specific Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Let's examine each statement:
This statement refers to SDG 8, which focuses on Decent Work and Economic Growth. Target 8.1 specifically aims to "sustain per capita economic growth in accordance with national circumstances and, in particular, at least 7 per cent gross domestic product growth per annum in the least developed countries" by 2030. Thus, statement A is correct.
This relates to SDG 3, Good Health and Well-being. Target 3.7 aims to "ensure universal access to sexual and reproductive health-care services, including for family planning, information and education" by 2030. Therefore, statement B is correct.
This concerns SDG 4, Quality Education. Target 4.3 states the goal is to "ensure equal access for all women and men to affordable and quality technical, vocational and tertiary education, including university education" by 2030. Higher education is encompassed within tertiary education, making statement C correct.
This statement describes goals related to building infrastructure, industrialization, and innovation. These are key components of SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure), particularly targets like 9.1, 9.2, and 9.5. SDG 7 focuses on Affordable and Clean Energy. Since the described targets do not align with SDG 7, statement D is incorrect.
This refers to SDG 6, Clean Water and Sanitation. Target 6.3 aims to "improve water quality by reducing pollution, eliminating dumping and minimizing release of hazardous chemicals and materials, halving the proportion of untreated wastewater and substantially increasing recycling and safe reuse globally" by 2030. Statement E accurately reflects this target, making it correct.
Based on the analysis, statements A, B, C, and E are correct. Statement D is incorrect as it pertains to SDG 9, not SDG 7.
Therefore, the correct option includes A, B, C, and E only.
