Uniting for child survival

The world will not be a perfect place even if the Millennium Development Goals are achieved. Poverty will still exist. Children and their mothers will still die needlessly. And the environment will continue to demand our attention. Nevertheless, according to the estimates from the Millennium Project, the independent advisory body that introduced recommendations for achieving the MDGs to the 2005 World Summit, reaching the goals will mean that the lives of up to 30 million children and 2 million mothers will have been spared. More than 300 million people will no longer go hungry. Hundreds of millions of people will gain access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation facilities. Millions more children will go to school and millions more women will enjoy economic and political opportunities.

Sustainable Development Goals:

Quality Education

Reduced Inequalities

Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions
