Goal 4: Quality Education

Global literacy rate.

The global literacy rate is a measure of the percentage of ​people across the world who are able to read and write. ​According to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and ​Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the global literacy rate has ​increased significantly over the past few decades, reaching ​86.3% in 2019. This is a significant improvement from the ​estimated 76% global literacy rate in 1990. However, despite ​the progress, there are still significant disparities in literacy ​rates between different regions and countries. For example, ​Sub-Saharan Africa has the lowest literacy rate, with only ​65.6% of the population being able to read and write. In ​contrast, the literacy rate in countries such as Finland and ​Norway is over 99%. Improving global literacy rates is crucial ​for promoting economic development, reducing poverty, and ​ensuring that everyone has access to education and ​knowledge.

Goal 8: Decent Work and Economic ​Growth

Global unemployment rate.

The global unemployment rate is a significant concern for ​policymakers and citizens alike. According to recent data, the ​unemployment rate has reached its highest level in decades, ​affecting millions of people across the world. The COVID-19 ​pandemic has exacerbated the problem, as many businesses have ​had to shut down or reduce their workforce due to economic ​strains. However, there are initiatives and programs that can help ​reduce the unemployment rate. Governments can invest in ​education and training programs to equip individuals with the ​skills needed to secure jobs in growing industries. They can also ​provide incentives for businesses to hire and retain employees.

Moreover, individuals can take steps to improve their ​employability, such as gaining relevant work experience, updating ​their skills, and networking with professionals in their desired ​field.

Goal 9: Industry, Innovation, and ​Infrastructure

Global internet penetration rate.

• Economic Growth and Job Creation: Access to the internet spurs ​economic growth by enabling businesses to reach global ​markets, reducing transaction costs, and fostering ​entrepreneurship. It also creates new job opportunities in the ​digital economy.
  
• Innovation and Entrepreneurship: The internet is a platform for ​innovation, providing access to information, enabling the sharing ​of ideas, and supporting the development of new technologies ​and business models.
  
• Access to Services: Increased internet penetration enhances ​access to essential services such as education, healthcare, and ​financial services, particularly in underserved or remote areas.
  

Goal 17: Partnerships for the ​Goals

Amount of official development assistance (ODA) given or ​received.

The amount of official development assistance (ODA) given or ​received is an important indicator of a country's commitment to ​international development. ODA refers to government aid that is ​specifically designed to promote economic development and ​welfare in developing countries. This aid takes many forms, ​including grants, loans, and technical assistance. The amount of ​ODA given or received by a country can have significant ​implications for its development. Countries that receive high ​levels of ODA may be able to make greater progress towards ​achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as ​reducing poverty and improving access to health care and ​education. On the other hand, countries that give high levels of ​ODA may be able to promote their own interests and values in the ​international community, while also contributing to global ​development efforts.
