2. The MDG Targets 1.Halve poverty and hunger 2.Achieve universal primary education 3.Eliminate gender disparity 4.Reduce by 2/3 child (under 5) mortality rate 5.Reduce by 3/4 maternal mortality rate 6.Halt and reverse spread of HIV AIDS and incidence of malaria and other diseases 7. Ensure environmental sustainability 8.Develop a global partnership for development

3. New Rices for Africa (NERICAs) Chinese technology helps African scientists to hybridize West African and Asian rice varieties to increase yield while preserving desirable local traits

4. New Tools for Malaria Control New drug combination therapies (ACTs) based on traditional Artemisia remedy, combined with pesticide impregnated bednets reduce the impact of malaria

5. New Tools to Locate and Measure Degradation of Ecosystem Services

6. Emerging features of science and innovation for development science innovation for development is not just about technological solutions successful science innovation for development draws on the full range of sources of science and technology there are specific needs and opportunities for new science innovation for development
