There's a lot of jargon in the title. SDG means 'Sustainable Development Goal', and there are 17 of these defined by the United Nations and articulated in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Industry 4.0 is a term coined by the Davos set to describe " a more comprehensive, interlinked, and holistic approach to manufacturing" featuring internet of things, robotics, AI and interconnectivity.

The article proceeds through the list goal by goal showing how open education can have an impact.
