Quality of Life Indicators: Access to Services Emily Bayles

Global Concerns Gender gaps in education: 781 million adults and 126 million youth worldwide lack basic literacy skills – more than 60% of them are women (2012) 748 million people do not have access to drinking water or improved source of it 2.5 billion people in LICs lack access to improved basic sanitation facilities

What’s Being Done About It? Millennium Development Goals: “The eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) – which range from halving extreme poverty to halting the spread of HIV/AIDS and providing universal primary education, all by the target date of 2015 – form a blueprint agreed to by all the world’s countries and all the world’s leading development institutions. They have galvanized unprecedented efforts to meet the needs of the world’s poorest” – extracted directly from

cont’d….. #2: Achieve universal primary education aims to: 1. ensure by 2015, boys and girls will be able to finish a full course of primary education. #7: Ensure environmental sustainability aims to: 1. halve, by 2015, the proportion of the population without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation 2.Achieve, by 2020, a significant improvement in the lives of at least 100 million slum dwellers
