Millennium Development Goals

For the first time in history, ending abject poverty is on the world’s agenda as a priority. Our global community of nations is committed to a comprehensive set of goals.

The Millennium Development Goals are the world’s time-bound and quantified targets for addressing extreme poverty in its many dimensions while promoting gender equality, education, and environmental sustainability.

The world’s never had a framework like the MDGs. And it is this framework that every individual on the planet needs to know in order to participate potently as global citizens.
