Evaluation of the health-related targets of the Sustainable Development Goals in Portuguese-speaking countries
Abstract
Introduction: In the context of the Sustainable Development Goals, it is important to monitor the performance of the signatory countries. Objective: This study aims at analyzing the Sustainable Development Goals’s health indicators for 2017 and projections for 2030 estimated by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, regarding the Community of Portuguese-Speaking Countries.
Materials and methods: Data from the Global Burden of Disease Study were used. In order to compare countries performances, it was analyzed an index that synthesizes 41 Sustainable Development Goals’s health indicators and also the values of each indicator, rescaled to a range from 0 through 100. The evolution of the index comprising the years of 1990 to 2017 and the projected trends until the year 2030 were analyzed for each country.
Results: The best performances were observed for Portugal and Brazil, in that order. In these countries, the greatest health problems are related to and related risk factors, and in Brazil violence is also highlighted. In other countries, there is a triple burden of diseases, infectious diseases, problems related to water supply and sanitation, high infant and maternal mortality rates, and high mortality rates due to noncommunicable diseases, sexual violence and physical aggression.
Conclusion: The Community of Portuguese-Speaking Countries presents internal disparities concerning economic and health status and the burden of diseases, which makes it urgent to establish a cooperation network to accomplish the 2030 agenda.
