This research examines the critical governance frameworks required to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030, specifically within the context of South Asian countries. Through a multidisciplinary lens, the study identifies political instability and a lack of institutional transparency as the primary hurdles obstructing regional progress. In alignment with the mission of Academic Vision Press (AVP) to promote high-quality research in the Social Sciences, this paper highlights how public policy serves as the essential backbone of national development and global goal attainment. Utilizing a comparative analysis of policy documents from various regional governments, this study focuses specifically on the Education and Social Welfare departments. The research reveals significant policy gaps, most notably a widespread lack of clear implementation roadmaps for developmental goals. By evaluating the intersection of governance and public policy, the study underscores that while theories exist, the transition from high-level strategy to on-ground execution remains a major challenge for regional administrations. The findings suggest that the adoption of “Good Governance” models, particularly digital governance (e-governance), can significantly accelerate poverty reduction and improve public health outcomes. Specifically, the data indicates that e-governance has the potential to reduce corruption in public service delivery by up to 25%. The study concludes that for academic contributions to be truly effective, future policies must bridge the gap between theoretical research and practical governance, ensuring that institutional transparency becomes a core pillar of leadership in South Asia.
