The Coalition's Policies Towards the Global Goals



On Saturday, we saw the re-election of the Liberal-National Coalition to government and the re-election of Scott Morrison as Prime Minister of Australia.


So how do the Coalition's policies stack up when it comes to the achievement of the Global Goals?


We have listed each of the election policies articulated on the Coalition's websites and which goals they will directly impact over the next few years. We have only referenced the goals with explicit mention of one or more aspects of said goal listed in the key points of each policy. Of course, the 17 goals are all interconnected, so progress towards one goal is progress towards each of the goals.
