As we draw closer to 2030, we must reflect on the learnings of SDG implementation over the last decade, course-correct, and accelerate the achievement of global development goals.

Home to one-sixth of humanity, India’s progress on SDGs directly impacts global achievement of the goals, while its role as a Global South leader offers innovative, and scalable models for developing countries to adopt. These ideas have shaped the Global Goals, Indian Vision, the fourth publication in a series released on India Day @ UNGA by Reliance Foundation, Observer Research Foundation (ORF), and the UN in India.

The publication presents case studies from India for forging innovative philanthropic partnerships, leveraging the power of collectives, and harnessing the potential of emerging technologies for development as key levers driving global momentum toward achieving the 2030 Agenda vision of people, planet, prosperity, and peace - underscoring that India's success is central to the world's shared sustainable future.

As the world navigates the decisive years to 2030, this publication reflects both the opportunities and challenges on the path ahead. It presents insights from government, philanthropy, civil society and business, offering field-level voices and practical frameworks that demonstrate how India’s journey can inspire global progress on sustainable development.
