Chile, Uruguay, and Cuba were the top-performing nations in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Latin America and the Caribbean in 2022. Based on that year's SDG Index, which ranges from 0 to 100, Haiti was the lowest scoring country in the region, with ***** points.
The SDG Index describes countries progress towards achieving the SDGs. The overall SDG Index score and scores for individual SDGs can be interpreted as a percentage of optimal performance. The difference between a country’s score and 100 is therefore the distance, in percentage points, that needs to be overcome to reach optimum SDG performance. The same basket of indicators is used for all countries to generate the SDG Index score and rankings. The score scales ranges from 0 (worst) to 100 (best) points. Further information about the index methodology can be found here.
