What is sDG 1?Show answer
Poverty limits access to food, healthcare, safe housing and clean water, so reducing poverty improves health. In turn, better health lets people work and earn, lifting them out of poverty. The link runs both ways.
What is sDG 2?Show answer
Food security and good nutrition are essential for health, immunity and child development. Ending hunger reduces undernutrition, stunting and disease, advancing SDG 3, while healthy people can work to grow and secure food.
What is sDG 4?Show answer
Education, especially health literacy and the schooling of girls, leads to healthier choices, lower child mortality and better use of health services. Healthy children, in turn, attend school more and learn more.
What is sDG 5?Show answer
When women have equal rights, education and decision-making power, family and child health improve, fertility falls and maternal mortality drops. Good maternal health supports women's full participation, reinforcing gender equality.
What is sDG 6?Show answer
Safe water and sanitation prevent diarrhoeal and other infectious diseases that kill young children, directly advancing SDG 3. Healthier populations have the capacity to build and maintain water infrastructure.
What is sDG 13?Show answer
Climate change threatens health through extreme weather, shifting disease patterns and reduced food and water security. Acting on climate protects the environmental foundations of health, while a healthy population can drive climate action.
