For example, Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) provides guaranteed wage
                employment to rural households, thereby enhancing income and reducing poverty.
              •  Goal 2—Zero Hunger: This goal ensures all people, especially children, have sufficient and nutritious food. This
                requires international cooperation for promoting sustainable agriculture so that together we can end all forms of
                hunger and malnutrition by 2030.
                 It ensures everyone has enough food, which improves health and reduces diseases. Well-fed children do better in
                school, leading to brighter futures. Healthy people are more productive, boosting the economy. Reducing hunger
                also creates more stable and peaceful communities.
                 For example, National Food Security Act (NFSA) aims to provide subsidized food grains to approximately two-thirds
                of the population, ensuring food security and reducing hunger.

              •  Goal 3—Good Health and Well-being: This goal ensures a minimum number of deaths and illnesses by giving healthy
                lifestyles,  preventive  measures  from both  communicable and  non-communicable diseases including  hazardous
                chemicals and air, water, and soil pollution so that it promotes healthy lives and well-being for all people at all ages.

                 It ensures access to quality healthcare, reducing illness and deaths. Healthy people can work and learn better,
                boosting  productivity  and  economic  growth.  It also  promotes mental well-being,  leading  to happier  and  more
                fulfilled lives.

                 For example, Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY) provides health insurance coverage to
                over 500 million vulnerable individuals, promoting access to quality healthcare and improving health outcomes.

                                                                          THE GLOBAL GOALS
                                                                           For Sustainable Development


              •  Goal 4—Quality Education: This goal ensures good quality education for all, so that the youth and adults of all nations
                have relevant skills, including technical and vocational skills, for employment, decent jobs and entrepreneurship.
                 Education gives you knowledge related to different things that you come across in your daily life. Quality education
                will provide a strong foundation for financial security. This will improve their standard of living and will give them a
                way to move out of poverty. It will enlighten the youth to contribute in all possible ways to the social and economic
                development of their community  which  is another important factor to fulfill  many  other  related sustainable
                development goals.
                 For example, Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) aims at universalizing elementary education and ensuring quality education
                for all children up to the age of 14.
              •  Goal 5—Gender Equality: This goal ensures that people of all genders have equal rights and opportunities so that
                they have the power to shape their own lives and contribute to the development of society.
