The Millennium Development Goals are eight targets set by the UN to reduce poverty by 2015, including eradicating extreme poverty and hunger, achieving universal primary education, promoting gender equality, reducing child mortality, improving maternal health, combating HIV/AIDS and other diseases, ensuring environmental sustainability, and developing global partnerships. In 2000, 189 UN members committed to achieving the MDGs. The Philippines has made progress on some goals but faces challenges in maternal health, reproductive health, nutrition, education, and sustainability. While efforts have increased, meeting all the 2015 targets depends on further scaling up programs and resources.

Bangladesh's progress on the MDGs
Bangladesh has already met several targets of the MDGs like reducing poverty gap ratio, attaining gender parity at primary and secondary education, under-five mortality rate reduction, containing HIV infection with access to antiretroviral drugs, children under five sleeping under insecticide treated bed nets, detection and cure rate of tuberculosis under directly observed treatment short course and others. In addition, Bangladesh has made remarkable progress in the areas of poverty reduction, reducing the prevalence of underweight children, increasing enrolment at primary schools, lowering the infant mortality rate and maternal mortality ratio, improving immunization coverage and reducing the incidence of communicable diseases.
The Household Income and Expenditure Survey of 2010 data show that the incidence of poverty is declining at a rate of 2.47 percent per year since 1991-92 in Bangladesh. It can be said that the target of halving the population living below the poverty line is already achieved in 2012.On the other hand, areas in need of greater attention are hunger-poverty reduction and employment generation, increases in primary school completion and adult literacy rates, creation of decent wage employment for women, increase in the presence of skilled health professionals at delivery, increase in correct and comprehensive knowledge on HIV/AIDS, increase in forest coverage, and coverage of information and communication technology.

PARTICIPATION IN DOMINICAN REPUBLIC INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMMES RELATED TO THE E...FUNDEIMES
More than participation, Dominican Republic, through the years, it has been inserted into the universal education, with international commitments which has been included. That is why your goals and achievements are rather formulas for measuring the progress of education in the Republic, since this also contributes to educational excellence, given that commitments to institutions and countries in other regions are assumed, while commitments are being established as goals to be achieved by the Dominican education system, in order to standardize education universally, with the mechanisms established treaties and conventions that have been signed..
These international education commitments, duties have been taken as well as a political responsibility, to be established as an important benchmark to measure the impact of education programs that run efficiently. Therefore, in educational plans and programs for the period 2008 - 2013, a global education guide serve for monitoring and enforcement, and detecting the scope of such programs and the country's ability to meet its stated commitments.
The World Declaration on Education for All was considered essential so universal all access to education and promoting equity, pay attention priority to learning, broadening the means and scope of basic education, improve the learning environment; strengthen coordination of actions, and realize the enormous potential for progress and increase the chances of individuals when accessing education.
The Sustainable Development Goals—officially known as "Transforming our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development"—are an intergovernmental set of 17 aspirational goals and 169 targets. Building post-2015 on the accomplishments of the Millennium Development Goals, but cognizant also of their shortcomings, they combine economic, environmental, and social goals that now apply to all countries. They were developed in a broad two-year consultation process during which civil society, citizens, academics, scientists, and the private sector of all countries had the opportunity to contribute.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

MDG
1. The Millennium Development Goals
The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) are a set of eight time-bound, concrete and specific targets aimed
at significantly reducing, if not decisively eradicating poverty, by the year 2015:
1. Eradicating extreme poverty and hunger;
2. Achieving universal primary education;
3. Promoting gender equality and empowering women;
4. Reducing child mortality;
5. Improving maternal health;
6. Combating HIV /AIDS, malaria and other diseases;
7. Ensuring environmental sustainability; and,
8. Developing global partnerships for development.
Global Commitment to the Millennium Development Goals
In September 2000, one hundred and eighty-nine UN member-countries -- rich and poor alike -- reaffirmed their
commitment to peace and security, good governance, and attention to the most vulnerable with the adoption of the
Millennium Declaration.
Containing commitments to achieve the eight MDGs and the specific targets under them by 2015, the Millennium
Declaration reflects the vision of entire nations, working together with international and country-based
organizations, to wipe out poverty and the worst forms of human deprivation, and lay the foundations for
sustainable human development by the year 2015.
The overarching need is to ensure that the MDGs are integrated into and given top priority in each committed
country's development planning efforts: with efficient monitoring, localization, and advocacy systems put in place;
crucial financing secured; multisectoral support mobilized; and an enabling environment created with an MDG-
responsive policy framework and legislation.
Philippine Commitment to the Millennium Development Goals
Since the Philippines first resolved to adopt the MDGs, it has made encouraging strides, particularly towards the
attainment of targets on reducing extreme poverty; child mortality; the incidence of HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and
malaria; on improving gender equality in education; and improving households' adequate dietary intake as well as
access to safe drinking water.
Underpinning these gains are two facts. First, the MDGs have been tightly integrated into the Medium-Term
Philippine Development Plan (MTPDP) 2004-2010, thus allowing government strategies, policies and action plans
to simultaneously address national and MDG targets. Second, the government has continually closely monitored
its own rate of progress in MDG indicators, and used this information to fine-tune its planning and implementation,
especially to ensure effective implementation at the local level.
Nevertheless, serious challenges and threats remain with regard to targets on maternal health, access to
reproductive health services, nutrition, primary education, and environmental sustainability. And glaring disparities
across regions persist, as do severe funding constraints.
The overall probability of attaining the targets remains high, though dependent largely on the confluence of several
factors, among them: scaling up of current efforts on all target areas; more efficient synchronization and allocation
of available limited resources, including mobilization of additional resources; and stronger advocacy for and
enhanced capability to implement the MDGs at the local level.
