Abstract
The SDGs were set in the year 2015, with the target period for achieving these goals at the end of the year 2030. The 17 goals are universal in nature and are interdependent. Every year, all countries report on their progress toward the SDGs. The role of science and technology in achieving the SDG will leave no one behind. Science, technology, and innovation are the keys to SDG progress. It provides a smarter solution to the problem and encourages evidence based policy making. The achievement of the SDG target cannot be left solely to policymakers. It can be made achievable by establishing think tanks, research and development, academia-industry collaboration, discussion between science and society, etc. The outbreak of COVID-19 has pushed back sustainable goals. Use of technology and innovation can help in achieving these goals. It will help us to achieve national goals, which in turn will help to achieve the goals set out in the SDGs. The paper examines the contribution of science and technology in achieving these goals.
Key words: SDGs, Technology, Research, Development, GDP, Innovation, Sustainability, Digitisation, Education, Equity
