The key findings of the survey report titled UN Sustainable Development Goals in 2021: Public Opinion on Priorities and Stakeholders' Commitment (released on 9th June, 2021), 28-country Ipsos survey for The World Economic Forum (please click here, here and here to access):

• The latest Ipsos survey conducted in partnership with the World Economic Forum about the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals finds “zero hunger" (SDG-2), “no poverty" (SDG-1) and “good health and well-being" (SDG-3) ranking as the global public’s top priorities.  

• Conducted during the period from 23rd April to 7th May, 2021, the Ipsos survey finds that “zero hunger” (SDG-2), the SDG most viewed as a priority globally, ranks #1 in 20 of 28 countries and is in the top 3 of 6 other countries.

• “No poverty" (SDG-1), the #2 priority globally, ranks #1 in 4 countries and is in the top 3 of 20 other countries.

• “Good health and well-being” (SDG-3), the #3 priority globally, ranks #1 in 4 countries and is in the top 3 of 13 other countries.

• All top 3 goals of most countries count among the global top 6. Only 5 other SDGs show in the top 3 of any country: “climate action" (SDG-13) at #3 in Great Britain, “life below water" (SDG-14) at #3 in Germany; “peace, justice and strong institutions" (SDG-16) at #3 in South Korea; “reduced inequality" (SDG-10) at #3 in Belgium; and “gender equality" (SDG-5) at #3 in India.

• In India, the topmost priority is given to "zero hunger” (SDG-2). "Good health and well-being” (SDG-3) is at #2 in the country. “No poverty" (SDG-1) and "gender equality" (SDG-5) are both at #3.

• On average across all the countries surveyed, half of those asked say their government is taking less than their share of responsibility for achieving these goals (53 percent) while about four in ten say so of businesses in their country (42 percent) and of “most people” in their country (40 percent). However, for each of their country’s government, businesses and people, an average of 22 percent say they are taking more than their share of responsibility.

• In India, 44 percent of respondents think that the government is not doing enough by taking responsibility to achieve the SDGs, whereas 32 percent of respondents think that the businesses are not doing enough by taking responsibility to achieve the same. Around 34 percent of respondents think that most people are not doing enough by taking responsibility to achieve the SDGs.

• A majority think their government is skirting its responsibility in 20 countries — most so in Hungary, (71 percent), Colombia (69 percent), South Africa (69 percent), and Brazil (67 percent).

• A majority think businesses are not doing enough in Chile (56 percent) Canada (55 percent), Turkey (55 percent), Great Britain (54 percent), Italy (52 percent) Hungary (52 percent), and Colombia (51 percent).

• A majority are critical of “most people” in their country not doing enough in Turkey (60 percent), Hungary (56 percent), Italy (53 percent), and Canada (52 percent).

• Kindly note that these are the results of a 28-market survey conducted by Ipsos on its Global Advisor online platform. Ipsos interviewed a total of 19,585 adults aged 18-74 years in the United States, Canada, Malaysia, South Africa, and Turkey, and people aged 16-74 years in 24 other markets between April 23 and May 7, 2021.

• In 2015, world leaders agreed to 17 goals (also referred to as “SDGs”) for a better world by 2030. They engage governments, the private sector, civil society and citizens to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. Ipsos asked 19,585 adults from 28 countries to rank 8 randomly selected SDGs among 16 of them, in order of priority to address today. Each of the 16 goals was evaluated by close to 10,000 respondents.

• Online samples in Brazil, Chile, mainland China, Colombia, India, Malaysia, Mexico, Peru, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and Turkey tend to be more urban, educated, and/or affluent than the general population. The “Global  Country Average” reflects the average result for all the countries and markets where the survey was conducted. It has not been adjusted to the population size of each country or market and is not intended to suggest a total result.
