In a nutshell
- A lot of heterogeneity is observed as Egypt managed to implement several SDGs, others are lagging behind.
- Given the reduced fiscal space and the complex trade-offs facing the government, different SDGs should be prioritized considering their socioeconomic impacts.
- No poverty (SDG1), zero hunger (DG2), inequality (SDG10), climate action (SDG13), and peace, justice and strong Institutions (SDG16) will require immediate actions
