Ooredoo commits to the United Nations global goals

The conference, titled “Transforming our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”, will deliberate on the future roadmap as 2015 is the deadline year for achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). “The goals focused the world’s attention on disease and poverty, and by using data to measure progress, we could see which countries were succeeding and which were falling behind”, said Gates.

According to the report, the Global Goals campaign – funded by Mr. Curtis and launched at UN Headquarters earlier this month – is aimed to reach 7 billion people in seven days with news of the Global Goals for Sustainable Development.

Supporters say there is no choice but to go big in a world of expanding population, growing inequality, dwindling resources and the existential threat from global warming. This momentous agenda will promote shared prosperity and well-being for all over the next 15 years.

Bill Gates explains why the Millennium Development Goals is beneficial for the future.

“To make the goals realistic across these different country settings, there needs to be more opportunities for community engagement”, he said.

It was clear “the new development agenda had to be truly South as well as North, that it had to be universal, it had to be global, that it had to have from the start a component that reflected a whole set of concerns on the part of developing nations”.

The SDGs, that may outline the worldwide sustainable improvement agenda submit-2015, are a proposed set of worldwide improvement targets to be adopted by governments around the globe.
