The Atlas of Sustainable Development Goals

One person who has provided tipoffs to quite a few of my LivingGeography posts over the years is Keir Clarke, who curates Google Maps Mania.

Not all of the maps he shares are Google Maps.

Earlier today, he shared the World Bank's 'Atlas of Sustainable Development Goals' which is an excellent free resource.

Description from the website:

The Atlas of Sustainable Development Goals 2020 presents interactive storytelling and data visualizations about the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. It highlights trends for selected targets within each goal and introduces concepts about how some SDGs are measured. 

Where data is available, it also highlights the emerging impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the SDGs.

The Atlas draws from the World Bank’s World Development Indicators database, as well as from a wide variety of relevant data sources from scientists and other researchers worldwide.

Well worth investigating. I've only had a quick look, particularly at the health section of the Atlas and there are some very useful maps.
