CEOS and the UN Sustainable Development Goals
The CEOS Ad Hoc Team on Sustainable Development Goals (SDG-AHT) coordinates the efforts of CEOS Agencies in supporting the Group on Earth Observations (GEO) to advance the uptake of Earth Observations (EO) in the implementation of the 2030 Agenda on sustainable development.
The SDG-AHT has formed four subteams, each addressing an SDG indicator that has high potential for EO contributions, but for which there are still some methodological and data availability issues. Some of the efforts and achievements of CEOS for each of these indicators are summarised below.
For more information on the CEOS SDG-AHT, please visit the team's page on the CEOS website.
