Sustainable Development Goal-3 

‘Good Health and Well-Being’ 

 

Being healthy expresses the state of being well and free from illness, because if you are healthy, rest is secondary in life. If one has good mental health, one can stay well focused, if one has a healthy heart free from all heart diseases, the person can be stress free and live happily, and if one has a fit body, he/she will be active and energetic. So overall, if you stay healthy, you can achieve all the goals of your life. 

Sustainable development goal-3 which is among one of 17 peaceful and helpful goals set by UN ‘United Nations’ in the year 2015, urges for each person’s- ‘good health and wellbeing', or in other words, this theme refers to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages and targets to end epidemics of AIDS, TB, malaria, tropical diseases and compact hepatitis, water-borne diseases by the year 2030. 

 

Why did our school choose SDG-3?  

At St. Mary school Dwarka, we chose SDG-3 because in last two years “COVID-19” a worldwide pandemic has impacted millions of people in various health issues. This pandemic has even shaken the global economy. By focusing on providing more efficient funding of health systems, improved sanitation and hygiene, and increased access to physicians, there can be one more opportunity to improve and make a better world by joining our hands tougher. 

How does our school promote SDG-3?  

To spread awareness among the students of our school, we were shown various presentations on Sustainable Development Goal-3, which helped us to understand it and implement the same goal in our day-to-day life.  

Senior students interviewed juniors to ensure that the students have understood these goals, which strengthened their understanding of the same. A drive to clean the environment was also undertaken by the students by collecting plastic trash and e-waste from all classes. To ensure that we continue doing the good work many activities are also incorporated in our holiday’s homework by the teachers.
