Reducing poverty, promoting prosperity and protecting the planet

The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)

In September 2000, world leaders committed their nations to 8 Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) to be achieved by 2015. These goals range from halving extreme poverty to halting the spread of HIV/AIDS and providing universal primary education. To attain them the Secretary General has launched different initiatives, including the Zero Hunger Challenge.
