The United Nations Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator for Nigeria, Mr. Matthias Schmale, once said that “If we position women and girls at the center of economic drive, we will fundamentally drive better and more sustainable outcomes for all, and put Africa back on a footing to achieve the 2030 Agenda and its accompanying SDGs”.

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals are interconnected and integrated to address the major development challenges faced by people globally and Nigeria inclusive. This means that “action in one area will affect outcomes in others, and that development must balance social, economic and environmental sustainability”. This simply means that, placing the SDGs together, they become the epitome of paradise; a dreamland, one which would create a world next to the Biblical Heaven.
