    For me, the most relevant goal is SDG3: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages. I think that some good has come out of the COVID-19 pandemic, and this is that there is a renewed appreciation and awareness for the field of public health. Beyond COVID-19, there are lots of other aspects (diseases, treatments and medications, health system strengthening, etc) that needs to be done and probably won’t be done by 2030. So, there is an urgent need to work on the nexus of different goals to strengthen both parties. For example SDG1, SDG3, and SDG6 provide a complementary basis to work together as they are so interlinked. Here, strengthening WASH systems in schools would be a great entry point.
