Caribbean lags: 45% of SDG targets regressing
14/04/2026
the Caribbean has the lowest share of targets on track for fulfillment (13%), compared to 19% in South America and 18% in Central America and Mexico. Some 45% of Caribbean targets show stagnation or regression — the highest share among the three subregions — reflecting structural vulnerability compounded by global geopolitical fragmentation.
