Progress has stalled or reversed for more than a 1/3 of SDGs and is slow on nearly half; only 15% remain on track. More people live in extreme poverty than before the pandemic, and the goal of gender equality will take nearly 300 years to realize at current pace. carnegieendowment.org/2023/09/14/fiv…

The best part of my job is I get to deal with people’s stories. Everyone has a story, from the most needy to the most powerful. And hearing it (really hearing it) changes the moment, and reality, by default.
