Anand Motors Ltd supports a scholarship programme for girls from low-income families to study engineering. Its CSR report must name the SDG that is the primary link. Which should it be?
The primary link is SDG 4, Quality Education, because the programme funds girls' engineering education through scholarships. Gender equality is a supporting goal. Responsible production, life on land and partnerships do not describe the main outcome of a scholarship scheme.
- ASDG 4 - Quality EducationCorrect
- BSDG 12 - Responsible Consumption and Production
- CSDG 15 - Life on Land
- DSDG 17 - Partnerships for the Goals
Explanation
Scholarships for higher education directly advance SDG 4, with SDG 5 as a supporting goal. SDG 12 and SDG 15 concern consumption and ecosystems. SDG 17 concerns partnerships and is not the core outcome of a scholarship.
