Chapter 1
Frameworks for Sustainable Development Goals to Manage Economic, Social, and Environmental Shocks and Disasters
This represents the third objective or target stipulated by the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which positions individuals’ state of being, at both at physical and at mental level, on the top of the priorities; even though life expectancy has increased over time due to the tremendous medical progress in finding solutions for some of the major causes of illnesses and death, our Planet is continuously threatened by irresponsible actions and activities that have overbearing implications on people’s lives, health, and well-being; in essence, the 2030 Agenda clearly suggests that sustainable development (SD) and good health are interconnected and go hand-in-hand, depending one on the other (UN, 2015).
