GOAL 6: COMBAT HIV/AIDS, MALARIA AND OTHER DISEASES
http://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/aids.shtml
TARGETS
1. Halt and begin to reverse, by 2015, the spread of HIV/AIDS
2. Achieve, by 2010, universal access to treatment for HIV/AIDS for all those who need it
3. Halt and begin to reverse, by 2015, the incidence of malaria and other major diseases
Quick Facts http://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/pdf/MDG_FS_6_EN.pdf
* Every day over 7,400 people are infected with HIV and 5,500 die from AIDS- related illnesses. HIV remains the leading cause of death among reproductive-age women worldwide.
* An estimated 33.4 million people were living with HIV in 2008, two thirds of them in sub-Saharan Africa.
* Access to HIV treatment in low- and middle-income countries increased ten-fold over a span of just five years.
* Malaria kills a child in the world every 45 seconds. Close to 90 per cent of malaria deaths occur in Africa, where it accounts for a fifth of childhood mortality.
* 1.8 million people died from tuberculosis in 2008, about 500,000 of whom were HIV-positive.
Monitoring http://www.mdgmonitor.org/goal6.cfm
6.1 HIV prevalence among population aged 15-24 years
6.2 Condom use at last high-risk sex
6.3 Proportion of population aged 15-24 years with comprehensive correct knowledge of HIV/AIDS
6.4 Ratio of school attendance of orphans to school attendance of non-orphans aged 10-14 years
6.5 Proportion of population with advanced HIV infection with access to antiretroviral drugs
Have halted by 2015 and begun to reverse the incidence of malaria and other major diseases
6.6 Incidence and death rates associated with malaria
6.7 Proportion of children under 5 sleeping under insecticide-treated bednets
6.8 Proportion of children under 5 with fever who are treated with appropriate anti-malarial drugs
6.9 Incidence, prevalence and death rates associated with tuberculosis
6.10 Proportion of tuberculosis cases detected and cured under directly observed treatment short course
GOAL 7: ENSURE ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY
http://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/environ.shtml
TARGETS
1. Integrate the principles of sustainable development into country policies and programmes and reverse the loss of
environmental resources
2. Reduce biodiversity loss, achieving, by 2010, a significant reduction in the rate of loss
3. Halve, by 2015, the proportion of the population without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation
4. Achieve, by 2020, a significant improvement in the lives of at least 100 million slum dwellers
Quick Facts http://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/pdf/MDG_FS_7_EN.pdf
* Some 1.7 billion people have gained access to safe drinking water since 1990. Yet 884 million people worldwide still do not have access to safe drinking water and 2.6 billion people lack access to basic sanitation services, such as toilets or latrines.
* The world has missed the 2010 target for biodiversity conservation. Based on current trends, the loss of species will continue throughout this century.
* Slum improvements are failing to keep pace with the growing number of urban poor. The absolute number of slum dwellers keeps rising, with some 828 million people living in slums today, even though the share of the urban population living in slums is declining.
Monitoring : http://www.mdgmonitor.org/goal7.cfm
7.1 Proportion of land area covered by forest
7.2 CO2 emissions, total, per capita and per $1 GDP (PPP)
7.3 Consumption of ozone-depleting substances
7.4 Proportion of fish stocks within safe biological limits
7.5 Proportion of total water resources used
7.6 Proportion of terrestrial and marine areas protected
7.7 Proportion of species threatened with extinction
7.8 Proportion of population using an improved drinking water source
7.9 Proportion of population using an improved sanitation facility
7.10 Proportion of urban population living in slums
GOAL 8: DEVELOP A GLOBAL PARTNERSHIP FOR DEVELOPMENT
http://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/global.shtml
TARGETS
1. Develop further an open, rule-based, predictable, non-discriminatory trading and financial system
2. Address the special needs of least developed countries, landlocked countries and small island developing states
3. Deal comprehensively with developing countries’ debt
4. In cooperation with pharmaceutical companies, provide access to affordable, essential drugs in developing countries
5. In cooperation with the private sector, make available benefits of new technologies, especially ICTs
Quick Facts http://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/pdf/MDG_FS_8_EN.pdf
* Official development assistance stands at 0.31 per cent of the combined national income of developed countries, still far
short of the 0.7 per cent UN target. Only five donor countries have reached or exceeded the target.
* Debt burdens have eased for developing countries and remain well below historical levels.
* Only 1 in 6 people in the developing world has access to the Internet.
