Millennium Development Goals Vs Sustainable Development GoalsAmrita Pal
The document compares the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The MDGs were established in 2000 with 8 goals and targets to be achieved by 2015, focusing on basic development issues in developing countries. The SDGs were established in 2015 with 17 goals and 169 targets to be achieved by 2030, focusing on overall development for both developed and developing countries through sustainability. The SDGs were created through a more extensive process than the MDGs and have more comprehensive goals and indicators.
The document discusses the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) related to health. It outlines 12 targets under SDG 3 (good health and well-being), including reducing maternal and child mortality, combatting diseases, reducing NCD deaths, achieving universal health coverage, and increasing funding for healthcare. Each target includes 1-3 proposed indicators to measure progress. The document provides data on indicators such as maternal mortality ratio, tuberculosis incidence, road traffic deaths, and tobacco use for global, Southeast Asian region and India.
On September 25, 2015, 193 Heads of State at the United Nations General Assembly set up a collection of 17 goals known as The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) or simply Global Goals.
The SDGs and their 169 targets form the core of Resolution 70/1 of the United Nations, which is a breakthrough agreement called AGENDA 2030. The goals are to be achieved by all member states by year 2030.
They are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure all people enjoy peace and prosperity.
The goals are broad, interdependent and cover social, economic and social issues and making them work is everyone’s responsibility.
The following slides present a brief overview of the goals.
The document summarizes the current status of the Millennium Development Goals established in 2000 to be achieved by 2015. It discusses progress made towards the eight goals of eradicating poverty and hunger, achieving education, promoting gender equality, reducing child mortality, improving maternal health, combating HIV/AIDS and other diseases, ensuring environmental stability, and developing a global partnership. While some progress has been made, many regions are off target to fully achieve the goals by the 2015 deadline, with lack of adequate funding being a major obstacle.
The document discusses the status of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) related to health - reducing child mortality (MDG 4), improving maternal health (MDG 5), and combating HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases (MDG 6). It provides an overview of the targets and indicators for each goal and analyzes India's progress toward meeting the targets by 2015. While India has made progress in reducing child mortality, maternal mortality, and prevalence of HIV/AIDS and malaria, it is expected to fall short of fully achieving the goals. Global progress is also outlined. Concerted efforts are still needed to meet the health-related MDG targets through actions like increasing access to healthcare.
The document summarizes key points from a presentation about nutrition policy and food security in relation to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It discusses the SDGs which were adopted in 2015 and include 17 goals to end poverty, hunger, and promote health, education, gender equality, and more. The presentation focuses on SDG 2 to end hunger and promote nutrition, the indicators FAO is responsible for monitoring related to agriculture and food security, and Malaysia's commitment and progress toward implementing the 2030 SDG agenda.
Climate change policies aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve health and well-being. Implementing policies like restricting pollution has led to significant health benefits in China, including 47,240 fewer deaths in 2017 from improved air quality. While all populations are affected by climate change, policies that transition energy sources and encourage active transportation can help prevent disease and promote mental health. Achieving the targets of climate policies positively impacts other UN Sustainable Development Goals like those focusing on health, well-being, and sustainable communities.
The Millennium Development Goals are eight goals that were agreed upon by 189 United Nations member countries in 2000 to be achieved by 2015. The goals address issues such as poverty, hunger, disease, lack of adequate shelter, and exclusion while promoting gender equality, education, and environmental sustainability. Progress is measured using specific targets and indicators for each goal. While countries have made progress toward achieving the goals, serious challenges remain in areas like maternal health, access to reproductive healthcare, nutrition, education, and environmental sustainability. Meeting all of the goals will require increased efforts and resources as well as stronger implementation at the local level.
Sustainable Development Goal 2; End Hunger and NepalPrakash Ghimire
The 17 Sustainable Development Goals were adopted by the UN in 2015 to guide global development efforts over 15 years. The SDGs call for action to end poverty and hunger, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all. SDG 2 aims to end hunger and malnutrition by 2030 through sustainable agriculture and equal access to food. Progress on SDG 2 will require investments in nutrition, small farmers, and resilient agricultural practices that protect ecosystems. Nepal has made progress on related MDG targets but still faces challenges with hunger and malnutrition rates.
The document provides an introduction to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. It discusses that the 2030 Agenda sets out 17 Sustainable Development Goals to be achieved by 2030, including health-related targets. It notes that the 2030 Agenda aims to be universal, transformative, inclusive, involve new actors, and break down silos between sectors. The document then discusses various aspects of implementing the 2030 Agenda, including mainstreaming the goals into national and local plans, policy support from UN agencies, monitoring and reporting processes, and building partnerships.
The document discusses the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), which were established in 2000 by the United Nations to address global poverty, gender inequality, education, health, and environmental sustainability. It provides details on the 8 goals, 18 targets, and 48 indicators that make up the MDG framework. For each goal, it lists the associated targets and indicators used to measure progress. Additionally, it summarizes world and country-specific scenarios related to achieving the various MDG targets.
This document discusses the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) for 2015. It highlights key points on MDG 6, which aims to combat HIV/AIDS, malaria, and other diseases, and MDG 7, which aims to ensure environmental sustainability. For each goal, it provides national targets, achieved indicators, and status. Challenges to achieving the goals include natural disasters, conflicts, weak economic commitments, and lack of funding and awareness. The post-2015 agenda needs collective contributions to strengthen inclusive social development, identify priorities, and establish transparent and adaptive systems.
The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) were adopted by 189 countries at the UN Millennium Summit in 2000 with a target date of 2015. There are eight MDGs that use 1990 as the baseline year for measuring progress through targets. Sub-Saharan Africa needs the most improvement to reach its goals, such as reducing the number of children who die before age five and increasing access to clean water and sanitation. Achieving the MDGs requires a global partnership and cooperation between all countries.
The document is a presentation analyzing Nepal's progress toward achieving the Millennium Development Goals. It provides background on the MDGs and outlines Nepal's 8 goals and corresponding targets. It then analyzes Nepal's status and progress against the targets for each goal based on data from 1990 through the latest available figures. Key findings are that Nepal has made progress but still faces challenges in achieving many of the 2015 targets, particularly in areas of poverty, education, gender equality, child and maternal mortality. The presentation identifies strategies Nepal is employing to work towards fully achieving the MDGs by the deadline.

This document summarizes a presentation on achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in India, with a focus on ensuring no state falls behind. It discusses India's mixed performance on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and lessons for the SDGs. Key factors that caused poor performance for some states on the MDGs included lack of economic growth, insufficient priority of resources for human development, inefficient service delivery, lack of basic infrastructure, and lack of gender empowerment. The document outlines eight policy priorities for lagging states to catch up, such as focusing on growth, prioritizing expenditures, improving service delivery efficiency, policy and institutional reforms, innovation, partnerships, and seeking central government support.
This document discusses poverty, hunger and agriculture in India in the context of achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals. It provides an overview of India's progress in reducing poverty and malnutrition. While poverty has declined faster in recent years, multi-dimensional poverty and certain states and social groups still have high poverty levels. Both agriculture and non-agriculture sector growth have contributed to poverty reduction, though there is debate around their relative impacts. Reducing malnutrition will require continued efforts across agriculture, nutrition programs, women's empowerment and water/sanitation.

On 1 January 2016, the world officially began implementation
of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development—the
transformative plan of action based on 17 Sustainable
Development Goals—to address urgent global challenges
over the next 15 years.
This agenda is a road map for people and the planet that will
build on the success of the Millennium Development Goals
and ensure sustainable social and economic progress worldwide.
It seeks not only to eradicate extreme poverty, but also
to integrate and balance the three dimensions of sustainable
development—economic, social and environmental—in a
comprehensive global vision.
The Sustainable Development Goals Report 2016Peerasak C.
Foreword
On 1 January 2016, the world officially began implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development—the transformative plan of action based on 17 Sustainable Development Goals—to address urgent global challenges over the next 15 years.
This agenda is a road map for people and the planet that will build on the success of the Millennium Development Goals and ensure sustainable social and economic progress worldwide. It seeks not only to eradicate extreme poverty, but also to integrate and balance the three dimensions of sustainable development—economic, social and environmental—in a comprehensive global vision.
It is vital that we begin implementation with a sense of opportunity and purpose based on an accurate evaluation of where the world stands now.
That is the aim of this report. It presents an overview of the 17 Goals using data currently available to highlight the most significant gaps and challenges.
The latest data show that about one in eight people still lived in extreme poverty, nearly 800 million people suffered from hunger, the births of nearly a quarter of children under 5 had not been recorded, 1.1 billion people were living without electricity, and water scarcity affected more than 2 billion people.
These statistics show how important coordinated global data-generation efforts will be in supplying reliable and timely data for systematic follow-up and progress reviews.
The Goals apply to all societies. Even the wealthiest countries have yet to fully empower women or eliminate discrimination.All nations will need to build the Sustainable Development Goals into their national policies and plans if we are to achieve them.
This first report is a starting point. With collective global action, we can seize the opportunities before us and, together,fulfill the pledge of the 2030 Agenda to leave no one behind.

Secretary-General, United Nations "The new agenda is a promise by leaders to all people everywhere. It is a universal, integrated and transformative vision for a better world. It is an agenda for people, to end poverty in all its forms. An agenda for the planet, our common home. An agenda for shared prosperity, peace and partnership. It conveys the urgency of climate action. It is rooted in gender equality and respect for the rights of all. Above all, it pledges to leave no one behind."

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.
Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.

Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks

Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities.
