2015 -The MDGs end year is few miles away and propositions are on top gear for the SDGs. The challenge is that most of the promises latent in MDGs have not being achieved (up to the desired targets). The question now is: what can developing countries learn from the MDGs and how can they better equpped/aligned for the SDGs
We can integrate both goals :MDGs and SDGs to become one single goal.Then find resources to implement for reaching the goal. Developing countries still need external assistance in terms of expertise, technology and funding from developed countries and international organizations.
I believe in all the responses given. in addition i also believe the following can also be of immense help:
1. A sense of patriotism and nationalism
2. A sense of urgency,responsibility and commitment
3. Establishment of a strong, committed and passionate health systems and health personnel
4. Develop improved agricultural and irrigation systems
5. Encourage mechanised agriculture
These are but some of the means through which SDG's can be be maximised.
Thanks a lot for the responses:
I am particulalry enthused by responses of Daniel from numbers 1 to 4.
They can be summed up as: more inward-looking strategies than outward-orientation.
However, for number 5, proper programming and targetting is needed to ensure that the vulnerable (e.g. women, etc) whose live depend heavily on agriculture are not pushed out of the equation.
Thanks
