Book Millennium Development Goals for Health in Europe and Central Asia

Download or read book Millennium Development Goals for Health in Europe and Central Asia written by Bernd Rechel and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2004 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores the appropriateness of health-related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) for the countries of the Europe and Central Asia region, and the implications for policy choices at the regional, subregional and country levels. Findings include that, for the region as a whole, proportionately more gains in life expectancy would accrue from the control of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) than from achieving the targets in the classic MDGs. Other issues highlighted include the importance of reducing morbidity and premature mortality from NCDs and external causes across the entire region; and the need to focus on the classic MDG indicators (infant mortality rates, under-five mortality rates and maternal mortality ratios) in the countries of Central Asia and the Caucasus.

Book Europe and Central Asia   Meeting the Environment Millennium Development Goal

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews the status of the 28 countries of Europe and Central Asia (ECA) with respect to the environmental Millennium Development Goal (MDG). The aim of this goal is to 'ensure environmental sustainability,' which is elaborated by a set of three targets and eight indicators. The indicators for the environment MDG are important not only as measures of environmental sustainability, but also as contributors to the health and poverty goals. In ECA, these linkages are clearly brought out for the water supply and sanitation indicators, but also apply to the carbon reduction, forestry and biodiversity indicators. The three targets and its indicator are: (i) halve, by 2015, the proportion of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation: (a) proportion of population with sustainable access to an improved water source; and (b) proportion of population with access to basic sanitation; (ii) integrate the principles of sustainable development into country policies and programs and reverse the losses of environmental resources: (a) energy use (kg oil equivalent) per $1 GDP(Purchasing Power Parity(PPP)); (b) carbon dioxide emissions (per capita); (c) proportion of land area covered by forest; (d) ratio of area protected to maintain biological diversity to surface area; and (e) proportion of population using solid fuels; (iii) by 2020 to have achieved a significant improvement in the lives of at least 100 million slum dwellers: (a) proportion of households with access to secure tenure.
