This is our Challenge…

To halve World Poverty by 2015

The Clock is Ticking!!

WE MUST ACT NOW

Why must we ACT?

Because children die each day due to lack of food, water and shelter.

Because over one billion people don’t have clean drinking water.

Because many children still don’t get a chance to go to school.

But the world has a plan!!

Millennium Development Goals An eight-point plan for halving world poverty by 2015

MDG 1: Food & Shelter for the Extremely Poor

MDG 2: Education for all Children

MDG 3: Gender Equality

MDG 4 : Reduce Under 5 Mortality Rates

MDG 5: Reduce Maternal Mortality Rates

MDG 6: Reverse the Spread of Diseases, Especially HIV/Aids and Malaria

MDG 7: Clean Water & Care for the Environment

MDG 8: Fair Trade, More and Better Aid, Drop the Debt
