The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is a UN program that works to help poorer nations develop their human and natural resources. It provides expert advice, training, and funding to developing countries with an emphasis on least developed nations. UNDP is headquartered in New York City and works in over 177 countries on projects related to agriculture, education, health, and other economic and social sectors. The ultimate goals of UNDP are to encourage global development and help countries achieve the Millennium Development Goals.
This document discusses promoting Philippine culture and values in the region. It describes the cultural diversity in the region, including various indigenous groups that maintain distinct practices and value systems. It also outlines some key challenges faced by indigenous peoples, such as lack of involvement in development processes, poverty, unresolved ancestral domain claims, overlapping land tenure issues, lack of health services, outdated population data, and lack of documentation of indigenous cultures. The document proposes strategies to address these challenges, including promoting social justice, issuing ancestral domain titles, implementing laws protecting indigenous rights, and providing basic services, livelihood opportunities, and cultural documentation.
This document provides an introduction and overview of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It discusses how the SDGs were developed to succeed the Millennium Development Goals and aim to promote prosperity while protecting the planet. It outlines the 17 SDGs, including goals to end poverty, hunger, disease, lack of education, gender inequality, and more. It also notes that achieving the SDGs will require effort across society through partnerships and cooperation.
This document provides an overview and introduction to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Nigeria's National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy (NEEDS) for a seminar on youth development. It outlines the eight MDGs aimed at reducing poverty, improving health and education, and environmental sustainability by 2015. It also describes NEEDS' goals of wealth creation, employment, poverty reduction, and value reorientation through government and private sector reforms. Statistics are given on issues like poverty, hunger, education, health, and the environment to highlight the ongoing development challenges.
The document summarizes the status of tribal women in India, noting that they face high rates of gender-based violence, domestic violence, early marriage, trafficking, forced prostitution, and exploitation. It also discusses the poor economic, health, education, and living conditions of tribal communities. While India has constitutional provisions and laws for the welfare of tribes, injustice and exploitation of tribal peoples persist. Strategies proposed for empowering tribes include increasing access to education, healthcare, employment opportunities, and legal rights awareness.
Despite global effort it is estimated that about 2.2 billion people still live in poverty, and that approximately 80 of this figure is made up of people living in rural areas. The Sustainable Development Goals SDGs of the 2030 Agenda include as its number 1 goal, the goal to end poverty. However, the report by the World Bank 2018 stated that putting an end to poverty is proving to be one of the greatest human rights challenges the modern world faces.The Sustainable Development Goals SDGs which are an extension of the Millennium Development Goals MDGs was adopted on September 2015 by the United Nations Assembly to fight against poverty and eradicate human deprivation.This paper presents a brief introduction on poverty laws, discusses possible challenges and the way forward.

The Millennium Development Goals set out a mutual commitment between developed and developing countries to make sustained progress towards achieving this vision.
Specifically, the Millennium Development Goals aim to reduce poverty, fight disease and hunger, get girls in school and give more people access to safe water. African countries need to make the most progress if they are to meet these Goals.
The document discusses Millennium Development Goal 1 which aims to eradicate extreme poverty and hunger by 2015. It proposes that sustainable development is required for Goal 1 to succeed in Sub-Saharan Africa. Sustainable development involves environmental conservation, economic growth, and human security. Currently, 970 million people live in extreme hunger, including 100 million children under age 5. The document reviews literature on how environmental degradation, unstable economic growth, and lack of human security have exacerbated poverty and hunger in Sub-Saharan Africa. It presents hypotheses and regression models to analyze quantitative data from 2001-2010 related to factors like emissions, water access, GDP, labor participation, and malnutrition. Preliminary findings from the quantitative data analysis and qualitative

The document discusses the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their importance, providing an overview and comparison to the preceding Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). It notes that while progress was made on the MDGs, many targets were not fully achieved. The 17 SDGs are then introduced as aiming to build on the MDGs and address their shortcomings, with the goals of ending poverty, hunger, and inequality while promoting health, education, gender equality, clean water and sanitation, affordable energy, economic growth, and environmental sustainability. Current challenges to achieving the SDGs in East and Southern Africa are outlined, and the important role of faith-based organizations and churches in supporting the goals is discussed.
The document provides information on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It discusses the 8 goals of the MDGs from 2000-2015 related to poverty, education, gender equality, health, and environmental sustainability. It then outlines the 17 goals of the SDGs adopted in 2015 to build on the MDGs and address social, economic, and environmental issues globally in a more comprehensive manner through 2030. Key differences between the MDGs and SDGs include their scope, focus areas, targets, indicators, financing, and emphasis on quality of life and sustainability.

The document discusses Africa's Agenda 2063 framework for sustainable development and its relationship to the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It notes that Agenda 2063 and the SDGs show convergence on issues like social development, economic growth, and environmental sustainability. However, there are also some divergences, with Agenda 2063 focusing more on issues like African identity/culture and security, while the SDGs address inequality and sustainable resource management less. Realizing both frameworks offers Africa an opportunity for inclusive, transformative development to achieve sustainability over the coming decades as its population grows rapidly.
This document discusses poverty housing and urban housing in India. It defines poverty, describes different types of poverty, and discusses methods for estimating poverty levels and identifying poor households. It provides statistics on poverty levels in India from various years. It then examines the key features and facts related to urban poverty, including the rising number of urban poor in India. It concludes by outlining objectives for urban poverty alleviation programs in India.
National development is a comprehensive and holistic process that aims to improve all aspects of individual and societal well-being within a nation. It includes expanding industries, agriculture, education, social, religious, and cultural institutions. National development can be defined as the balanced development of a nation across political, economic, social, cultural, scientific, and material dimensions. It refers to a country's ability to enhance its citizens' lives through material increases like GDP as well as social improvements like literacy and healthcare availability.
Although the state of the world's indigenous peoples is alarming, there is some cause for optimism. The international community increasingly recognizes indigenous peoples' human rights, most prominently evidenced by the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. Indigenous peoples themselves continue to organize for the promotion of their rights. They are the stewards of some of the world's most biologically diverse areas and their traditional knowledge about the biodibversity of these areas is invaluable. As the effects of climate change are becoming clearer, it is increaslingly evident that indigenous peoples must play a central role in developing adaptation and mitigation efforts to this global challenge.
The State of the World's Indigenous Peoples is the result of a collaborative effort, organized by the Secretariat of the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues. The Chapters were written by independent experts.
The document discusses displaced persons and refugees in Africa. It defines displaced persons as individuals who have fled their homes due to armed conflict, violence, human rights violations, or natural disasters, and remain within their country as internally displaced persons (IDPs) or cross an international border as refugees. It provides examples of large IDP and refugee populations in countries like Congo, South Sudan, and across Sub-Saharan Africa. The causes of displacement mentioned include conflicts over land and resources, violence, political instability, ethnic or religious strife, state failure, human rights abuses, environmental factors, underdevelopment, and unemployment.
The document discusses a draft concept note for a World Conference on Youth in Sri Lanka. It provides background on youth populations globally and in developing regions, noting that many youth face challenges accessing employment, education, and decision making opportunities. It outlines Sri Lanka's commitment to youth development and participation, including establishing a Youth Parliament. The concept note argues that youth must be actively involved in shaping the post-2015 development agenda to ensure it meets their needs and priorities, such as education, health, employment, and equality.
This document discusses durable solutions for internally displaced persons (IDPs), including their right to return and strategies for reconstruction and rehabilitation. It identifies key principles like community participation, evidence-based approaches, and avoiding harm. Tools like displacement tracking matrices and geographic information systems can help monitor IDPs and plan responses. The case of Aceh, Indonesia demonstrates how decentralizing recovery efforts and cash transfers can aid durable solutions. Environmental impact assessments also support sustainable humanitarian responses. Aerial photos document the destruction of Baga, Nigeria from insurgent attacks. Durable solutions require coordinated efforts between humanitarian organizations using rights-based frameworks.
Millennium Development Goal progress report 2014, The
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) were a pledge
to uphold the principles of human dignity, equality and
equity, and free the world from extreme poverty. The
MDGs, with eight goals and a set of measurable timebound
targets, established a blueprint for tackling the
most pressing development challenges of our time. This report examines the latest progress towards
achieving the MDGs. It reaffirms that the MDGs
have made a profound difference in people’s lives.
Global poverty has been halved five years ahead of
the 2015 timeframe. Ninety per cent of children in
developing regions now enjoy primary education, and
disparities between boys and girls in enrolment have
narrowed. Remarkable gains have also been made in
the fight against malaria and tuberculosis, along with
improvements in all health indicators. The likelihood of
a child dying before age five has been nearly cut in half
over the last two decades. That means that about 17,000
children are saved every day. We also met the target
of halving the proportion of people who lack access to
improved sources of water.
The document summarizes a publication about the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) aimed at indigenous adolescents aged 13-18. It acknowledges the contributions of indigenous peoples to global diversity and their knowledge in areas like traditional medicine and environmental protection. It explains that UNDRIP establishes minimum standards for the survival, dignity and well-being of indigenous peoples and addresses their civil, political, social, economic and cultural rights. The publication was created in collaboration with indigenous youth to help them learn about and ensure implementation of the Declaration.
The World Health Organization aims to attain the highest level of health for all peoples. Its objectives include promoting complete physical, mental and social well-being without discrimination; ensuring health is valued for attaining peace and security; and extending medical knowledge to all. Membership is open to all countries, who contribute yearly and are entitled to WHO services and aid. WHO works on disease prevention and control, health systems development, research, statistics, and environmental health. It is headed by the Director-General and has regional offices around the world.

This report summarizes the scale of economic and gender inequality in Nigeria. It finds that while Nigeria has experienced significant economic growth in recent decades, this growth has primarily benefited a small elite. More than half of Nigeria's population still lives in extreme poverty. The report identifies several key drivers of inequality in Nigeria, including a regressive tax system that taxes the poor heavily while giving breaks to large corporations, high costs of governance that consume resources needed for public services, and rampant corruption among political elites that siphons off billions from state coffers for private gain. It concludes that reducing inequality will require reforms to policy and politics that distribute opportunities, income, and wealth more widely and curb corruption and rent-seeking behavior by elites
This document outlines the socio-cultural dimension of sustainable development. It discusses key concepts like the socio-cultural aspects of sustainable development and definitions of poverty and sustainable development. It also lists international organizations that work on these issues like the IPCC, UNESCO, and WFP. Additionally, it provides details on programs and projects from the Philippines that promote the socio-cultural aspects of sustainable development, such as education initiatives, social protection programs, and local arts and culture projects funded by the NCCA.
This document provides background information on partnerships between indigenous peoples and the UN system. It discusses the establishment of UN mechanisms to address indigenous issues, including the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues, and the Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. The document also outlines criteria for identifying good practices in UN programming with indigenous peoples and the methodology used in compiling case studies.

The document discusses definitions of sustainability and human development according to the UN, including the human development index. It provides the UN definition of sustainability as "meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs." It defines human development as creating an environment where people can develop their full potential and lead productive, creative lives according to their needs and interests. The human development index is introduced as a single statistic that measures a country's average achievement in health, education, and living standards.
This policy aims to enhance IFAD's engagement with indigenous peoples in rural areas by setting out principles and approaches to empower them to overcome poverty in a way that respects their identity and culture. It establishes nine principles to guide IFAD's work, including recognition of cultural heritage, free prior and informed consent, community-driven development, and land/resource rights. The policy draws on IFAD's experience working with indigenous communities, international standards, and consultations. It will strengthen existing programs and establish new knowledge sharing to implement these principles throughout the project cycle.
The document discusses the key concepts of economics and development economics. It explains that economics originated from the Greek words for household management, referring to managing limited resources to meet unlimited wants. Development economics focuses on improving developing country economies through factors like health, education, and domestic/international policies. It also discusses different perspectives on development goals and indicators used to measure and compare development levels between countries like per capita income, education, and health metrics.
This document outlines FAO's new policy on indigenous and tribal peoples. The policy was created through extensive consultation and is meant to guide FAO's work in relation to indigenous issues. It acknowledges that indigenous peoples make up a large portion of the world's food insecure and emphasizes the importance of respecting indigenous knowledge, cultures, and practices in pursuing sustainable development and food security. The policy defines key principles and priority areas of collaboration between FAO and indigenous peoples going forward.
Life on earth is always dependent on Nature. From the very inception of a living phenomena, Nature has sustained life, including human life.
Sustainable development, in general, refers to the process of socio-economic development through a judicious utilization of nature’s resources, keeping in view the needs of future generations.
When we talk of sustainable development in relation to education per se we must be clear in our mind the concept, scope and application of terms like sustainability, development and also education.
Here are some key points about the Lesotho Highlands Water Project:
1. It is a multi-phase project to capture and divert water from the Orange River system in the highlands of Lesotho to supply South Africa's industrial heartland.
2. Short term advantages include increased water supply for South Africa. Disadvantages include the costs of construction and environmental impacts of dams/tunnels.
3. Long term it ensures a sustainable water supply for South Africa but displaces Basotho communities. Environmental impacts may intensify over time.
4. Alternatives for South Africa include water conservation/efficiency, reducing consumption, increasing reuse of greywater, and addressing inequality in access which would reduce overall demand. Desal
This report provides a global update on multidimensional poverty in 2023, finding that 1.1 billion people across 110 developing countries experience multiple deprivations in health, education, and living standards. Nearly half of poor people live in Sub-Saharan Africa and over a third live in South Asia. The poorest regions and groups tend to experience the most intense poverty, with 485 million people experiencing severe poverty. While most countries have reduced poverty over time, children are being left behind in many places and population growth outpaced poverty reduction in 15 countries. The report calls for more recent data to fully understand poverty during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

This document discusses the evolution of concepts of development from the post-World War 2 era to present times. It notes that while development was initially conceived as a process for industrializing and modernizing backward countries, the reality is that poverty has increased greatly. The dominant paradigm of development focused on unlimited economic growth, exploitation of nature, and top-down large projects. However, this has led to severe environmental degradation and widening social inequalities. The document proposes alternative approaches centered around human development, sustainable development, and grassroots participation that emphasize meeting basic needs rather than unlimited growth.
The document discusses overpopulation in India, which has the second largest population in the world. It states that India's population is growing at an alarming rate due to high birth rates and low death rates. This population explosion puts increasing pressure on India's limited resources and leads to problems like inflation and poverty. The major causes of overpopulation are social beliefs, lack of awareness about family planning, and improved medical services. The effects include poverty and a reduced standard of living for many people. Solutions proposed include increasing public awareness, focusing on women's education and family planning, and government programs to encourage smaller families.
The document lists various international organizations such as WHO, UNICEF, World Bank, FAO, ICRC, ILO, UNESCO, UNDP, European Commission and USAID. It then provides details about the objectives, activities and structure of some of these organizations like WHO, UNICEF, UNFPA, World Bank, FAO, ICRC, ILO and UNESCO. WHO works to attain highest level of health for all. UNICEF aims to meet children's basic needs and rights. UNFPA's goal is to ensure reproductive health and rights for all. The World Bank provides loans for development programs to reduce poverty.
What are the United Nations Millennium Development Goals? Why they are important, and how you can help.
This is a presentation that I gave to about 300 Chinese students at an Open Forum hosted by the World Academy for the Future of Women (WAFW) at Sias International University. As a member of the World Academy, all women design and execute service projects, linked to one or more of the UN Millenium Development Goals.
The document discusses the UN's Millennium Development Goals and sustainable human development. It provides details on the eight Millennium Development Goals, which aim to reduce poverty, hunger, disease, maternal and child mortality, and lack of access to clean water and education by 2015. Achieving these goals requires addressing the interrelationships between health, human development, and environmental sustainability to ensure people can meet their needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their needs. Developed countries can support developing countries' progress through measures like debt relief, education, and facilitating more affordable trade.

This document discusses sustainable consumption practices at food festivals. It notes that making festivals more sustainable requires implementing real sustainable strategies rather than just "greenwashing". Festival organizers and vendors play a major role, as their operations directly impact resource use. For festivals to truly be sustainable, there needs to be cooperation among all stakeholders. The document examines how cultural, industry, and regulatory forces can facilitate sustainable behavior in organizers and vendors. It also considers how these two groups can work together efficiently to adopt and implement sustainable practices through cooperation and feedback.
Local gastronomy identity in eastern Taiwan is defined across three dimensions - taste of place, local resources, and local image. Taste of place includes food culture, originality, and nostalgia. Local resources emphasize diversification of seasonal, fresh, local ingredients. Local image features indigenous and Hakka cuisine promoting a healthy, clean destination.
A four-pronged model was proposed for local gastronomy development - government policy to promote slow food, quality agriculture and ethnic restaurants. Innovations incorporate glocalization and creative presentations. Host-guest interactions educate on local culture and food. Preserving culture maintains authentic lifestyles and flavors. Together this strengthens identity and preserves foodways for cultural-economic coexistence
