COVID 19: A lesson for Kenya to implement Sustainable Development Goals by 2030

The current Covid-19 pandemic is a critical reminder to world leaders that holistic implementation of the 2030 Agenda on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is urgent for all countries irrespective of their economic abilities or inabilities.

Evidently, we have now realised that pandemics are not reserved for the poor, less privileged or vulnerable groups; all human beings including the wealthy and powerful are candidates for the full wrath of diseases and pandemics. Covid-19 is much more than a health crisis with potential to devastate social, economic and political well-being of countries, continents and the entire globe.
