,How do the SDGs differ from the - Overarching goal of the SDGs is to "ensure healthy
MDGs? lives and promote well-being for all at all ages" (p. 8).
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
, What is health equity? How does - Health equity is created when individuals have the
accomplishing the SDGs help to fair opportunity to reach their fullest health potential.
achieve health equity? No one is disadvantaged from achieving this
potential because of social position or other socially

- SDG 3 aspires to ensure health and well-being for
all, including a bold commitment to end the
epidemics of AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria and other
communicable diseases by 2030. It also aims to
achieve universal health coverage, and provide
access to safe and effective medicines and vaccines
for all.
What is the relationship between - Root cause of hunger and death from infectious
poverty and health? disease
- Major contributor to crime, unsafe housing, and a
large number of other deadly deprivations
- Wherever there is widespread poverty, there will
inevitably be inequity and injustice as two of the
principal contributory issues
What key factors determine personal Genetics, behaviour, environmental and physical
health? influences, medical care, and societal factors
How do human rights abuses relate to - a set of rights afforded to individuals on the basis of
global health? being human, that is, irrespective of national
citizenship, gender, ethnicity, or other traits
- discrimination and oppression based on gender
occurs and health is compromised. It is now realized
that peace and prosperity depend on a fundamental
foundation of benign governance that respects the
rights of individuals
Why is malnutrition considered an 795 million people suffering from malnutrition. Death
