Goal 1: Eradicate Extreme Poverty and Hunger
In our world today:
1.2 billion people live on less than $1.00 a day.
Everyday 800 million people go to bed hungry.
Every day 28,000 children die from poverty related causes.
To reach Goal 1, governments must increase funding to education and health, increase agricultural productivity with new techniques, improve infrastructure (such as power and water supplies, transportation, roads, and schools), and promote human rights and sustainable developments.
