The United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development

Goals (SDGs) aim to achieve decent lives for all on a


healthy planet by 2030. As things stand, most of
them are likely to be missed. This is partly because
they fail to address human population growth.
Positive, empowering population solutions are key
