Goal 3 is to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages.
Good health is fundamental to enabling people to achieve their full potential and contribute to the development of society.

In addition, achieving optimal health, including access to necessary health care, food, water, clean air, sanitation, hygiene and medicines, is a fundamental right.
