The country is among seven Arab nations that have made significant progress, achieving two-thirds of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) outlined in the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/2023\/12\/1429.pdf\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">report<\/a>. The other six countries with an overall score of 65 or above (meaning they\u2019ve achieved two-thirds of the SDGs): Tunisia (70.6), Morocco (70.3), Jordan (69.5), Algeria (69), Egypt (68.3) and Oman (66.7).

Significant challenges remain in attaining the Good Health and Well-Being, Affordable Clean Energy, Decent Work and Economic Growth, Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure, and Partnerships for the Goals SDGs. Major challenges persist for the Zero Hunger, Responsible Consumption and Production, Climate Action, Gender Equality, Clean Water and Sanitation, Life Below Water, Life on Land, and Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions SDGs. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Trends:<\/strong> The UAE is on track to sustain achievements in the Poverty and Reduced Inequalities SDGs.
