Millennium Development Goals
Target 3
What are the Millenium Development Goals?
They are 8 targets supposed to be achieved in 2015
Did you Know?
*Of the 1.3 billion people living in poverty around the world, 70% are women.
*Women do about 66% of the world´s work in return for less than 5% of its income
*In the least developed countries nearly twice as many women over age 15 are illiterate compared to men.
*Two-thirds of children denied primary education are girls,and 75% of the world´s 876 million illiterate adults are women.
*Women work two-thirds of the world´s working hours, produce half of the world´s food, and yet earn only 10% of the world´s income and own less than 1% of the world´s property.
GOAL 3
Every singlegoal is directly related to women´s roghts, and societies were women are not afford equal rights as men can never achieve development in a sustainable manner.
*Freedom.Men and women have the right to live their lives and rises their children in dignity, free frem hunger and from the fear of vialonce, oppresion or injustice. Democratic and participatory governance based on the will of the people best assured these rights. The equal rights and opportunities of women and men must be assured.
121 million children are not in school, most of them girls. If a family can afford school fees for only one child, it will likely be a boy who attends.
While most of the Millennium Development Goals face a deadline of 2015, the gender parity target was set to be achieved ten years earlier.
The percentage of women in parliaments has increased in the last decade, but regional averages are all below 20%, with the exception of developed countries.
Problems
One of the problems of frteedom is that girls still wait for equal primary school access in some regions.
All people must have the sames rights.
Solutions
*Eliminated gender disparity in primary and secondary education and at all levels.
*Poverty has a woman´s face. Global prosperity and peace will only be achieved once all the world´s people are empowered to order their own lives and provide for themselves and their families.
