How do the SDGs differ from the MDGs? - Overarching goal of the SDGs is to "ensure healthy 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 fair
accomplishing the SDGs help to achieve opportunity to reach their fullest health potential. No one is
health equity? disadvantaged from achieving this potential because of social
position or other socially determined circumstances
- 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 poverty - Root cause of hunger and death from infectious disease
and health? - 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 influences,
health? medical care, and societal factors
How do human rights abuses relate to - a set of rights afforded to individuals on the basis of being
global health? 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 element 795 million people suffering from malnutrition. Death from

which sap the energy and the potential of huge numbers of
the world's population. Malnutrition increases mortality from
