The Sustainable Development Goals in America: Overview

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), commit 193 countries to improving environmental, social and economic indicators through their performance on 169 targets by 2030 in order to achieve compliance with the Paris Agreement. However, development dynamics in relation to the SDGs change over time and with this, countries do not identify the strengths and weaknesses in which the reality of their territory is visible, in addition to the indicators they have been addressed individually because its multidimensionality generates divergent results. In this sense, the objective of this review is to analyze the state of evolution of the SDGs in America and particularly in Colombia. To analyze the SDG dynamics in 32 countries of America, we systematize the official indicator data from 2010 to 2019 and United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD) indicators taking into account variables such as per capita gross domestic product, greenhouse gas emissions and renewable energies. As expected, the countries presented different strength in the development the indicators related to synergies and antagonisms of the SDGs. Also, it was possible to find a wide distribution in the advancement of SDGs, finding nine countries that managed to meet at least one of the goals, which allows make visible that each of the nations has taken government initiatives to achieve development and quality of life its inhabitants.

Los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible ODS comprometen a 193 países en el mejoramiento de indicadores ambientales, sociales y económicas a través de su desempeño en 169 metas para el 2030 con el fin de lograr el cumplimiento del acuerdo de Paris.  Sin embargo, las dinámicas de desarrollo en relación con los ODS cambian a través del tiempo y con ello, los países no identifican las fortalezas y debilidades en las que se visibiliza la realidad de su territorio. Además, los indicadores se han abordado de manera individual debido a que su multidimensionalidad generan resultados divergentes. En este sentido, el objetivo de esta revisión es analizar el estado de evolución de los ODS en América y particularmente en Colombia. Para analizar la dinámica de los ODS en 32 países de América, sistematizamos los datos de los indicadores oficiales de 2010 a 2019 y los indicadores de la División de Estadística de las Naciones Unidas (DENU) teniendo en cuenta variables como el Producto Interno Bruto PIB per cápita, las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero y las energías renovables. Como se esperaba, los países presentaron diferente fortaleza en el desarrollo de los indicadores relacionados con sinergias y antagonismos de los ODS. En este sentido, se logró encontrar amplia distribución en el avance de los ODS, encontrando a nueve países que lograron cumplir por lo menos en un objetivo la totalidad de las metas, lo que permite visibilizar que cada una de las naciones, ha tomado iniciativas gubernamentales para lograr el desarrollo y la calidad de vida de sus pobladores.
