  21. How is the world doing with the millennium development goals? • 80% of the world population lives in countries on track for the target of the malnutrition goal • 38% of countries accelerated the rate of decline of under 5 mortality during the 1990s • Progress for under 5 mortality too slow • Sub-Saharan African countries lagging behind • Poorest countries are the slowest to progress Progress

  29. Making progress towards the millennium development goals • Use available effective intervention • The technology is here, it must be used • Increase government targeted spending for health • Work across interrelated areas • Combat diseases • Involve donors Progress

  30. Take home messages • The millennium development goals provide guidance towards outcome-oriented inter-related development efforts • Indicators are available to monitor progress towards the goals • Targeted efforts towards effective interventions will make a difference
