\(C\)

Show Worked Solution

C is correct. This option clearly addresses sustainable cities, education, health and inequities (equal access).

Other options:

A is incorrect – This only addresses SDG 3 and ignores the interconnected nature of the goals.
B is incorrect – While this links SDGs 3, 4 and 10, it doesn’t address the sustainable cities/communities as directly as option C.
D is incorrect – This sequential approach ignores the synergistic benefits of addressing goals simultaneously.
