w4-1 // how are the SDGs different from MDGs

1. summary
What is MDG? It stands for Millennium Development Goals. There are 8 kinds in total.
1.     Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger
2.     Achieve universal primary education
3.     Promote gender equality and empower women
4.     Reduce child mortality
5.     Improve maternal health
6.     Combat hiv/aids, malaria and other diseases
7.     Ensure environmental sustainability
8.     A global partnership for development
So what is SDG? It stands for Sustainable Development Goals. There are 17 kinds in total.
1.     No poverty
2.     Zero hunger
3.     Good health and well-being
4.     Quality education
5.     Gender equality
6.     Clean water and sanitation
7.     Affordable and clean energy
8.     Decent work and economic growth
9.     Industry, innovation and infrastructure
10.  Reduced inequalities
11.  Sustainable cities and communities
12.  Responsible consumption and production
13.  Climate action
14.  Life below water
15.  Life on land
16.  Peace, justice and strong institutions

17.  Partnerships for the goals

2. interest
In a way, goals are important. Without a goal, there is no meaning of development, and especially the development of society is abstract and ambiguous. It is difficult to set a goal because it is not easily expressed in figures, data, etc. and is not certain. However, it was very impressive that he simply suggested how to proceed. 8 goals and 17 goals are certainly different. How is this different?

3. discussion
I think MDGs value the current state, and SDG values the future state. It is not an assessment of the current state, but an indicator and goal to determine what will happen in the future. That doesn't mean that MDGs are not important. MDGs can determine the current status and suggest the future direction.
