SOC 450 Week 5 Discussion The Pledge to Eliminate Poverty
The Pledge to Eliminate Poverty
As Hite and Seitz (2016) discuss in Chapter 2: Wealth and Poverty, the Millennium Development Goals were created to provide developing countries support through the partnership of developed countries. The first goal is to “eradicate extreme poverty and hunger” in the world.
According to the textbook, population is still increasing in the world’s poorest regions. Take a look at the Millennium Development Goals report (https://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/2015_MDG_Report/pdf/MDG%202015%20rev%20(July%201).pdf).
The report notes that progress in reducing extreme hunger is uneven across regions and countries. Looking at the graph on page 14 of the report:
Which countries have the least reduction in extreme hunger?
Which countries have the greatest reduction in extreme hunger?
What factors contribute to this uneven progress?
What are some possible strategies for creating more progress in the countries still experiencing extreme hunger?
