The SDG Snapshot
A simple way to turn one SDG Target into clear, achievable action.
Why It Matters
Once you have narrowed your options and identified your top five SDG Targets, the next step is choosing the one you can deliver. Large goals fail without focus, which is why the Snapshot system brings two tools together: the Feasibility and Urgency Heat Map and the Target Impact Snapshot Deck.
These tools help you sort all 169 SDG Targets by what is realistically possible, based on your role, your capacity, and what is most urgent. Some targets can be delivered immediately. Others will need partners. A few require wider systemic change.
The aim is simple: match what you can do with what must be done.
How It Works (Feasibility x Urgency Matrix)
The Traffic Light Toolkit maps all 169 SDG targets using two filters:
Feasibility: Who can deliver it?
Urgency: How soon must it be done?
Each target sits in one of 9 possible zones; colour-coded for clarity.
