Resumen
Descripción
Since the launch of the Millennium
Development Goals (MDGs) at the Millennium Summit in New
York in September 2000, the MDGs have become the most
widely-accepted yardstick of development efforts by
governments, donors and NGOs. The MDGs are a set of
numerical and time-bound targets related to key achievements
in human development. They include halving income-poverty
and hunger, achieving universal primary education and gender
equality, reducing infant and child mortality by two-thirds
and maternal mortality by three quarters, reversing the
spread of HIV/AIDS and other communicable diseases, and
halving the proportion of people without access to safe
water. These targets are to be achieved by 2015, from their
levels in 1990.
