United Nations Sustainable Development Summit (2015) has set global development goals. These goals
              are termed as Agenda 2030.









































            GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT GOALS
            The 17 global development goals are:

            Goal 1: End poverty in all its forms everywhere
            Our dedication to end poverty would bring dramatic improvements in quality of life,  environment and governance
            for everyone.

            Goal 2: End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition  and promote sustainable
            agriculture

            Hunger  can be eliminated easily if we  create  better  opportunities  for farmers and focus on the needs of
            undernourished groups. Sustainability means using fewer natural resources to produce food and reducing food
            waste and loss. Improved nutrition means reducing both hunger and obesity through improved   quality of foods.

            Goal 3: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages

            By promoting healthy life, we reduce the pressure on our natural resources.  Telemedicine, precision medicine
            and other advances bring dramatic improvements in terms of effectiveness and cost.
            Goal 4: Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities
            for all

            Technology can help us  transform education, we  must move beyond  the ‘first study, then work’  theory  to a
            model based on lifelong learning. Content and quality should have emphasis on critical thinking, collaboration
            and flexibility.
