Summary

The Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) has published its annual global assessment of SDG progress. The Sustainable Development Report 2026 confirms that while only 16% of SDG targets are projected to be achieved by the 2030 deadline, global commitment to the SDGs remains strong. The report also highlights eight priorities to accelerate progress towards 2030 and beyond.
Themed, ‘Implementing Sustainable Development: 2030 and Beyond,’ the 11th edition of SDSN’s Sustainable Development Report finds the vast majority of countries continue to support the SDG framework, with more than 170 of the 193 UN Member States backing UN General Assembly (UNGA) resolutions referencing sustainable development in 2025. The only two countries to consistently oppose resolutions linked to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development were Argentina and the US, according to the report.
