Impact on global health

Impact on sustainable human


development

Hunger is generally a consequence of


poverty.
Those that are poor are poorly paid or
unable to work, unable to buy nutritious
food or medicine, lack access to clean
drinking water and sanitation, healthcare,
shelter and are most vulnerable to
discrimination.

With increased income people are able to


meet their fundamental needs and their
health status is improved which decreases
morbidity and mortality world wide

If people are able to meet their


fundamental human needs as
individuals they are more likely to
achieve their full potential and lead
productive lives

End hunger, achieve


food security and
improved nutrition and
promote sustainable
agriculture

Hunger and food insecurity many lack


money to purchase food or are unable to
produce food. Millions in the world are
chronically hungry and malnourished and
most live in developing countries most are
children, mothers and the elderly. Linked to
poverty.

Good nutrition is essential for healthy,


productive and sustainable communities.
Chronic hunger leads to nutrient
deficiencies, undernourishment, physical
and mental weakness, vulnerability to
disease that is avoidable, and starvation.

When people have access to nutritious


foods they are able to actively
participate in their community, work to
earn a living and create a decent
standard of living, increase their
productivity and reach their full
potential

Ensure healthy lives and


promote well-being for
all at all ages

Healthy children increases the


productivity of children and adults and
will assist countries to get out of
poverty and reduce social issues.

Ensure inclusive and


equitable quality education
and promote lifelong
learning opportunities for
all

Achieve gender equality


and empower all women
and girls

Ensure availability and


sustainable
management of water
and sanitation for all

Promote sustained,
inclusive and sustainable
economic growth, full
and productive employment
and decent work for all

Promote peaceful and


inclusive societies for
sustainable
development, provide
access to justice for all and
build effective, accountable
and inclusive institutions at
all levels

Transition from Millennium Development


Goals to Sustainable Development Goals

The Millennium Development Goals were introduced in 2000 to


address poverty and make global progress on education, health,
hunger and the environment. These goals provided a global
framework and resulted in significant improvements in global
health however there was still much that needed to be achieved,
in response to help achieve these goals the United Nations
developed a new set of goals, the Sustainable Development Goals
which build upon and replace the previous MDGs.

What are the Sustainable


Development Goals?
On January 2016, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)
were introduced by the United Nations.
The newly established 17 SDGs are set to be achieved by 2030.
Over the next fifteen years all countries will make efforts to end
all forms of poverty, fight inequalities and injustice and tackle
climate change, while ensuring that no one is left behind.
The SDGs build on the success of the Millennium Development
Goals (MDGs) and aim to go further to end all forms of poverty.

The new Goals are unique in that they call for action by all
countries, poor, rich and middle-income to promote prosperity
while protecting the planet.
They recognize that ending poverty must go hand-in-hand with
strategies that build economic growth and addresses a range of
social needs including education, health, social protection, and
job opportunities, while tackling climate change and
environmental protection.
Governments are expected to take ownership and establish
national frameworks for the achievement of the 17 Goals.
Countries will be required to follow-up and review the progress
made in implementing the goals, which will require quality,
accessible and timely date collection.

Goal 1: No poverty

What is this goal about?

The aim is to end poverty in all its forms:


- Remove poverty and inequality within and among
nations.
- Eradicating extreme poverty, which is described as
living in less then US$1.25 per day, and reducing all
forms of poverty as defined by each country.
- Reducing half the proportion of men, women and
children living in poverty.

Why is it important ?

- Poverty is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality


rates.
- When people are poor they are unable to afford food,
clothing, shelter, safe water, healthcare, education and
lack opportunities to participate in decisions that affect
their lives and the community.
- when a country is poor there is not enough money to
provide public health services such as safe water and
sanitation, healthcare, education and social security
benefits.
