    Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of 17 global objectives aimed at ending poverty,
                      protecting the planet, and ensuring prosperity for all by 2030. They address key issues such as
                      climate change, inequality, and peace.

                                CHALLENGES BEFORE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

                      Some of the key challenges to sustainable development are given below:
                         There is instability and conflict between the nations.
                         There is lack of proper planning and implementation of programmes to fit the local level.
                         Non-profit organisations may lack skilled resources such as data scientists and NLP engines.
                         Human bias may be embedded in AI models or datasets.
                         Sensitive data needs to be protected from being made public.

                                SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS (SDGS)

                      In September 2015, 193 member countries of the General Assembly agreed to adopt the 2020

                      Agenda for Sustainable Development that contains a set of 17 global goals to end poverty, protect
                      the planet, and ensure peace and prosperity for the people around the globe. These 17 goals are
                      integrated in such a manner that action on one will have an impact on the other.
                      SDG 01: No Poverty

                      Eradicating extreme poverty and reducing poverty by at least by 50% is
                      the target to achieve. Worldwide, approximately 17.2 percent of people are
                      struggling to fulfil the most basic needs like health, education and access to
                      clean water and sanitation.  AI can help in improving  the  farming land,
                      agriculture, quality of products, etc. AI can also help with aid distribution in
                      poor and war-torn areas, or where natural disasters have caused heavy
                      destruction.

                                             SDG 02: Zero Hunger
                                             This goal aims to end hunger issues by 2030 and ensure access to nutritious
                                             food for all children. AI can help in reaching out to the goal by tracking food
                                             waste, finding ways to grow yields, identifying diseases and pest outbreaks,
                                             analysing means to reduce population, etc.

                      SDG 03: Good Health and Well-Being
                      This goal focusses on the well-being and good health for all. It aims to end
                      epidemics  like Cholera, Tuberculosis,  Malaria and other communicable
                      diseases.  AI can help in achieving  this  goal  by  increasing  the  ability  of
                      healthcare  professionals  to  analyse  huge  data  sets,  providing  better
                      feedback and finding accurately the cause of diseases to discover the cure.
                      Wearable  healthcare technology  also uses  AI to  serve the patients  and
                      healthcare workers.
