Mdgs ( Millenium Development Goals)

The internationally agreed framework of 8 goals and 18 targets was complemented by 48

technical indicators to measure progress towards the Millennium Development Goals. These
indicators have since been adopted by a consensus of experts from the United Nations, IMF,
OECD and the World Bank.

Outcomes of the MDGs for 2011

Outcomes of the MDGs can be divided into three groups. In the first group are goals which have
been achieved. In the second group goals which have demonstrated meaningful progress and
which
are on track for achievement by or prior to 2015. In the third group are goals of which
achievement
still require a great deal of work.
MDGs which have already been achieved:
MDG 1, i.e. the proportion of people whose income is less than USD 1.00 (PPP) per capita
per
day.
MDG 3, i.e. NER of female to male for tertiary schools (SMA/MA/Package C) participants,
and
literacy ratio of female to male aged 15-24 years.
MDG 6, i.e. curbed the spread and reduced new cases of tuberculosis (TB). These have been
indicated by incident and mortality rates, and the proportion of detected and treated
tuberculosis cases under the DOTS program.
MDGs which have demonstrated meaningful progress and which are on track for
achievement by
2015:
MDG 1, i.e. the very significant progress that has been achieved with the poverty depth index,
the proportion of self-employed workers and casual employees and family workers to work
opportunities, and halving of the proportion of people experiencing hunger.
MDG 2, i.e. NER in primary education (SD/MI/Package A), proportion of pupils starting
grade 1
who complete primary school, and the literacy rates for people aged 15-24 years, for both male
and female, of which all have neared a rate of 100 percent.
MDG 3, i.e. NER ratio for female to male at primary school (SD/MI
/Package A), junior secondary education (SMP/MTs/Package B), and higher education levels
which have nearly achieved a rate of 100 percent, contributions made by women in wage
employment in the non-agricultural sector, and the proportion of seats occupied by women in
the parliament which has risen significantly.
MDG 4, i.e. a reduction rate which has neared two-thirds of neonatal, infant, and under-five
mortality rates, and the proportion of children aged under-1 which have been immunized against
measles has risen considerably.
MDG 5, i.e. improved contraceptive prevalence rate for married women using modern methods,
lowered teenage pregnancy rates for females aged 15-19 years, and increased coverage of
antenatal services for both first and fourth pregnancy visits.
MDG 7, i.e. reduced consumption of ozone-depleting substances, proportion of fish stocks
within
safe biological limits, and ratios of protection areas for biodiversity preservation to total areas of
forest as well as ratios of marine protected areas to total areas of territorial waters, of which
both have risen.
MDG 8, i.e. the success that has been achieved in developing transparent regulations-based,
predictable, non-discriminatory financial and trading systems as indicated by export and import
ratios to GDP, loan to savings ratios at commercial banks, and loan to savings ratios at BPRs, of
which all have risen significantly. Moreover, it also concerns the success that has been achieved
in addressing debt which allows for longer-term debt management as indicated by sharply
declining ratios of external debts to GDP and ratios of repayment of external debt principals and
interests to export revenues. Further success is to be gained with regard to use of information
and communications technology as indicated by an increase in the proportion of people with
access to both landlines and cellular telephones.
