SUPER 8 MDG's !

What are the Millennium Development Goals?

Well to describe in a very simple form ; these are the most broadly supported development goals for which the whole world has come together to accomplish. They can prove to be the most strongest tool in the war against some very big issues that are hitting the world all together. Basic target are income poverty, hunger, maternal and child mortality, disease, inadequate shelter, gender inequality, environmental degradation and the Global Partnership for Development.

Let's learn it here -

Goal 1: Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger

Goal 2: Achieve universal primary education


Goal 3: Promote gender equality and empower women

Goal 4: Reduce child mortality

Goal 5: Improve maternal health

Goal 6: Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases

Goal 7: Ensure environmental sustainability

Goal 8: Develop a Global Partnership for Development


We all can do a bit to accomplish these goals by making people aware about the importance of the MDG's and to start work upon these goals through proper campaigning and knowledge seminars.
