Working Together

189 Country Heads firmly committed to work Together and Build A Safer, more Prosperous and
Equitable World for all by 2015 at the Millennium Summit in September 2000. They adopted
unanimously a Visionary Document named Millennium Declaration, which gave birth to the eight
Millennium Declaration Goals (MDGs).

The Millennium Development Goals
1. Eradicate Extreme Poverty and Hunger
2. Achieve Universal Primary Education
3. Promote Gender Equality & Empower Women
4. Reduce Child Mortality
5. Improve Maternal Health
6. Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other Diseases
7. Ensure Environmental Sustainability
8. Develop a global Partnership for development

Are We Responsible?
Even today, 1200 million people struggle to survive in less than 1 dollar a day; 50,000 people die
of extreme poverty; 113 million children do not have access to primary education: Of 4 children
born, 1 will not reach the age of 5 and more than 13 million children are orphans due to HIV/AIDS
Let’s Play Our Roles Now!!!!….Just 2 Minutes!!! Any Place, Any Time of the
Day…17th October 2007--A Global Call to Action for MDGs!!!!!
