What is SDG 9? Why is SDG 9 Important?

I was honoured to be asked to speak at the Global Sustainable Development Summit, hosted by GCPIT, about SDG 9 — Building resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation.

Like every other SDG, SDG 9 has sub-targets and indicators that help us keep track of what needs to be done, by when, and the progress made.

SDG 9 has a rather interesting sub target, 9.C. This target is particularly interesting because, unlike many others, the deadline is (was) 2020.

So for my talk, seeing as it was 2021, I decided to look a little deeper into the importance of SDG 9.C, what’s been achieved and what is yet to be done.

You can see the full video, and download the slides, that was recorded during my presentation and subsequently augmented with the slide deck in the link below
