The goal of MDGs was to "reduce extreme poverty by 2015." - "The transition from the MDGs to the SDGs is premised on building a sustainable world where environmental sustainability, social inclusion, and economic development are equally valued (p. 7)." - The MDGs have promoted health and well-being in many countries, but progress towards achieving the MDGs was uneven. - The MDGs had amazing strides (e.g., half of the world population lived on $1.25 a day in 1990, but this dropped to 14% by 2005); however, they left out issues such as disasters, conflict situations, the epidemic of non-communicable diseases, mental health disorders, and large inequities in all parts of the world (p. 7-8) - SDGs addressed many of these shortcomings and position a new all-inclusive goal with a broad set of targets for the MDGs - Unlike the MDGs, which only targets the developing countries, the SDGs apply to all countries whether rich, middle or poor countries. The SDGs are also nationally- owned and country-led, wherein each country is given the freedom to establish a national framework in achieving the SDGs. - MDGs were prepared by only a few stakeholders without adequate involvement by developing countries and overlooked development objectives previously agreed upon and not appropriately adapted to national needs What are the MDGs i. Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger ii. Achieve universal primary education iii. Promote gender equality iv. Reduce child mortality v. Improve maternal health vi. Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria, and other diseases vii. To ensure environmental sustainability viii. Develop a global partnership for development
