Description

This academic text from Routledge provides a detailed assessment of the roadmap for implementing the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) across South Asia. While the region is one of the fastest growing in the world with an aggregate GDP exceeding two trillion US dollars, it faces massive challenges in human development. This book examines the gap between economic growth and social progress. Readers will find an in-depth look at how the region addresses poverty reduction, inequality, health, well-being, water, and sanitation. With 37 percent of the world's poor and nearly half of the world's malnourished children located in South Asia, understanding these social development metrics is vital for researchers and policymakers. This volume serves as a necessary resource for those studying the specific hurdles and opportunities presented by the SDGs in this high-growth, high-need area.
