SDG 3- Good Health and Well Being

v What is SDG 3 all about?

Ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being at all ages is essential to sustainable development. Currently, the world is facing a global health crisis unlike any other — COVID-19 is spreading human suffering, destabilizing the global economy and upending the lives of billions of people around the globe. 

Before the pandemic, major progress was made in improving the health of millions of people. Significant strides were made in increasing life expectancy and reducing some of the common killers associated with child and maternal mortality.

Health emergencies such as COVID-19 pose a global risk and have shown the critical need for preparedness.

What our school did to promote Good Health and Well Being- SDG 3.

The school has included the SDGs in our curriculum. It shouldn’t be overlooked just how much research and information is packed into each of the SDGs. The United Nations has sourced and compiled vital information about each goal in one place.

From extensive facts and figures to the individual targets that make up each goal, the SDGs are useful classroom resources that adds depth and context to lesson plans. The SDGs are not just a series of abstract ideals. The goals themselves are SMART, with clear time-limited targets that make up each SDG.

The school made co-team called Code Green, which conducted brainstorming, and interviews to raise awareness. The school introduced the students to the topic of Sustainable Development Goals with the help of PPT’s to make the students aware of the challenges that we face as a global community.

Of course, the school mentions disease’s risks when talking about the Good Health. According to data released by the UN, chronic diseases are today those that most affect the world population: 63% of all deaths in the world come cases such as cardiovascular, cancer and diabetes.

v What can be done to solve the Good Health and Well Being problems?

·       By 2030, reduce the global maternal mortality ratio to less than 70 per 100,000 live births.

·       By 2030, end preventable deaths of new-borns and children under 5 years of age, with all countries aiming to reduce neonatal mortality to at least as low as 12 per 1,000 live births and under-5 mortality to at least as low as 25 per 1,000 live births

·       By 2030, end the epidemics of AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria and neglected tropical diseases and combat hepatitis, water-borne diseases and other communicable diseases.

·       Strengthen the prevention and treatment of substance abuse, including narcotic drug abuse and harmful use of alcohol.
