2023 #SDG Summit Adopts Crucial Declaration, India's Economy Shows Steady Growth, Aims for US$5 Billion in Exports

The 2023 #SDG summit adopted a crucial #political declaration, assessing progress, acknowledging existing gaps and challenges, and issuing a call to action for steering the world towards #agenda2030. The #NewDelhi Declaration's policy commitments in the health sector emphasize the role of the #G20 in revising existing financial and global health governance discussions. Former Reserve Bank of India Governor Raghuram Rajan notes that India's economy is showing signs of steady growth but needs to expand at a pace of over 8% to create enough jobs for the world's most populous nation. #India aims to achieve its target of US$5 billion in exports and move into the top 20 defense exporters globally. The goal is to become a US$5 trillion economy with the underlying objective of becoming a developed nation by 2047, picking up pace after the pandemic.
